God's Rhythm to Bless Us

Good morning Brothers. Happy Sunday! Praise God for waking you up this first day of the week. God loves you. I love you. Give someone a hug today. Let’s sing, I give myself away, So You can use me. I give myself away, So You can use me. Here I am, Here I stand Lord, my life is in your hands. Lord, I'm longing to see Your desires revealed in me. I give myself away! Today’s verse is Mark 2:27. Then he said to them, The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. As adults we have a complicated relationship with rules. Even as small children, we struggle to understand the "why" behind them. Sabbath rest can be confusing but it’s God's rhythm to bless us, not God's requirement to burden us. Jesus is the Lord of the Sabbath! He reminds us that people weren't made for the Sabbath, but the Sabbath was created for people by God to provide much-needed rest. Jesus is the maker (and fulfiller) of all God's good rules, and He knows that regular rest is one of the rhythms that leads to an abundant life. God loves you. Have a blessed day.
