God made time for rest, and so can we.
– I am not God.
– I was designed for delight in God’s beauty.
You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it rests in you. ~ Augustine, Confessions
– I have a serious “yes” problem.
3 Catalytic “Yeses” to learning from the Lord of the Sabbath
1. Say “yes” to a sabbath day in every season.
2. Say “yes” to time attending to God.
3. Say “yes” with some Christian friends.

The conclusion affirmed by the narrative is that wherever YHWH governs as an alternative to Pharaoh, there the restfulness of YHWH effectively counters the restless anxiety of Pharaoh. In our own contemporary context of the rat race of anxiety, the celebration of Sabbath is an act of both resistance and alternative. ~ Walter Brueggemann, Sabbath as Resistance
Sanctifying the Sabbath is part of our imitation of God, but it also becomes a way to find God’s presence. ~ Abraham Joshua Heschel, The Sabbath
