"God's Rest"

August 04, 2024 Daily Devotion: "God's Rest" Hebrews 4:9-10 New International Version 9 There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; 10 for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, [a] just as God did from his. Have you ever had one of those days where you were miraculously blessed with extra minutes somehow, with nothing urgent on the to-do list, and were able to use that time to take a nap? There is something really sweet about giving yourself permission to take a nap, like a child, in the middle of the day. That is the same kind of sweetness in “God’s rest,” a special, holy rest. It might not be a nap, literally, but a calmness of the spirit that comes from trusting God’s sovereignty in your life. We can rest peacefully knowing God has everything under control.
