Working From Rest: A Prayer JourneySample
Working from God’s Rest
Father, forgive me when my work is based on self-reliance and I forget my need of you.
The promise of entering God’s rest is still available to those who believe – the rest of intimate fellowship between God and human beings. When we sin, we do not have to become restless wanderers like Cain, banished from God’s presence. Through faith in Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, there is a way back.
For reflection: How do you know when you are trusting in your own ability and not in God?

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.
