Rest
The time to relax is when you don’t have time for it. (Sydney J. Harris, 20th century American journalist)
It seems difficult for many people today to find time to relax. Days off are skipped because of the rush of events or duties. We sometimes postpone vacations because of urgent business involvements. And even when a few spare moments become available, we hasten to turn on the TV or fill the void with some activity. God’s order for taking Sabbaticals is ignored to our loss.
Then Jesus said, “Let’s go off by ourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile. (Mark 6:31)
