40 Days of Purpose Sunday – Sabbath

40 Days of Purpose

Sunday – Sabbath

By Katie Berglee

I hope you’re taking time to rest and reflect today. Here’s a quote about Sabbath to ponder. You can also review this week’s thoughts and questions about the preparation for Resurrection Sunday here.

“A biblical theology of work also includes the explicit call for regular Sabbath rest, when we set our work aside and take time for leisure, recreation, worship and fellowship. We are not merely workers; rather we are children of God who are called to work. Our work is never the primary expression of our identity, and though regular Sabbath rest we re-establish our identity in God and in his love, acceptance and grace toward us (ex. 31:13-17).”
-Gordon T. Smith in his book, Courage and Calling.
