July 12, 2009: Take It Easy – Brian Gray

The Sabbath was not original with Israel. Many civilizations observed a day of rest in their weekly calendar. God however commanded that His people do this because he created rest on the seventh day of creation. God created rest for men and women so that we could reflect, remember, and stop. Today we are moving toward that rest. What does it mean for us to be people who take a breath? Who can “relax” and recognize where the blessings in our lives come from?
