God-Given Rest

Do you experience God’s presence going with you? Do you know the rest of God? What does God’s presence have to do with God’s rest.

In the Book of Exodus, God delivered the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt. God spoke to Moses, promising he would go with them, and that he would give them rest.

God said, “My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” (Exodus 33:14, ESV).

When God is with us and we experience his presence, we also experience God’s rest.

May we experience God-given rest as God’s presence goes with us.

A Collect for Sabbath Rest: “Almighty God, who after the creation of the world rested from all your works and sanctified a day of rest for all your creatures: Grant that we, putting away all earthly anxieties, may be duly prepared for the service of your sanctuary, and that our rest here upon earth may be a preparation for the eternal rest promised to your people in heaven; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
