Rest is good
Rest is a good thing. My wife and I enjoyed each others company on Columbus day last week. I tend to be a person that has to get up and go. I have to accomplish something. I have to be productive. I made up my mind to take time to breathe in the day. I didn't do work. I didn't even engage in making music. After our daughter went to school we hung out and went from place to place and even had time for a nice sit down lunch at a local restaurant. I went back to work the next day ready to engage because I had been refreshed. I engaged in ministry with new found energy. I accomplished everything that needed to be accomplished outside of my home because I focused on being in the moment with my wife while I was inside of our home. Thank you Lord for rest.

Yes, rest is very good. That's why God instituted the seventh day the Sabbath! So many people forget to rest. Instead they are so focused on doing. All of the churches I have been too have a few people doing a lot and those few people forget to take their weekly Sabbath refraining from ALL work!
