Working From Rest: A Prayer Journeyनमुना
Sabbath Renewal
Holy Spirit, I need your wisdom to guide me as to how to shape the Sabbath for myself and my family.
What Sabbath looks like for each of us will differ, and, due to working patterns, it may not be a Sunday. We need wisdom, learning how to honour this gift and not go our own way. The command is to stop! Sabbath is defined by the ceasing of work – not just paid work, but whatever constitutes work for us. The primary function of this stopping is not simply an opportunity to refresh ourselves, it is the recognition that life depends solely on God’s provision and not on our efforts.
For reflection: In honouring the Sabbath, what would it be good for my household to stop?

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.
