Relax and Trust

You have six days each week for your ordinary work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath day of rest dedicated to the Lord your God. On that day no one in your household may do any work. ~ Exodus 20:9-10a (NLT)

Then Jesus said to them, "The Sabbath was made to meet the needs of people, and not people to meet the requirements of the Sabbath...." Mark 2:27 (NLT)
Lord, thank you for establishing rest. I'm sorry that I do not take full advantage of it. I know in my head that I need it but I still live like I'm invincible and that I can do anything I set my mind to. Please help me to stand down and to allow you to do what you do, in the time that you have allotted to me. I'm going to relax and trust you. Amen.
