Working From Rest: A Prayer JourneySample
Working from Rest
Father God, thank you for the people I work with and live with. May your love flow through me, and gentleness characterise my relationships.
Let your gentleness be evident to all. When we are tired and anxious it impacts our relationships. Our fuse is shorter, our temper more easily ignited. Rest is relational. The original sabbath commands were for the whole community. When we take time to rest in the Father’s embrace and receive His love, His love can flow through us to others.
For reflection: How does rest impact the quality of your relationships?

About this Plan
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.
