Working From Rest: A Prayer Journey

DAY 26 OF 40

Stopping

Lord, please help me to recognise the opportunities to be still and honour you in my day.

If we look, we will find our days are full of 40-second spaces – waiting for a kettle to boil, for a Zoom meeting to start, for a traffic light to turn green, for a phone to be answered, etc. What if we developed recovery routines for those moments? Perhaps a moment of thankfulness, a prayer of blessing for the person we are about to speak to, or a declaration of God’s lordship over our lives.

For reflection: What recovery routines are possible in each day?

About this Plan

Working From Rest: A Prayer Journey

Sabbath rest is essential to our identity as God’s people: a gift to refresh us and equip us for good work. But many of us find it hard to do. This prayer journey will help you explore the reasons for restlessness, God’s gift of rest, and how your work – in your job, your home, or your street – can flow from that place of rest and connection with Him.
