Christian Reflection and Prayer

Scripture:

“Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but
the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God.
On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your
son or daughter, nor your male or female servant, nor
your ox, your donkey or any of your animals, nor any
foreigner residing in your towns, so that your male and
female servants may rest, as you do.”
Deuteronomy 5:13–14

The Sabbath is a metaphor for all our work in life. We
put in our best efforts and do our part. But at some
point, we must stop and let God take over.

The Sabbath is a concept meant to be incorporated
into everything we do, every day of our lives. We do our
best and let God do the rest. We need to be acutely
aware of Who is the real Creator. While we may
contribute to the world, it is ultimately God Who is
responsible for every success and each failure. So, let
go of working overtime – and let God take over every
time!
