Jesus was and is the absolute fulfillment of God’s plan in the earth, yet He understood the importance of balancing His functioning with rest. In the same manner, we are also God’s plan in the earth and in order for us to function at our highest level, we must also embrace rest. Doing is good, but when we neglect rest, we deny God an opportunity to accomplish things that have never been done before. We must be intentional about our functioning, shut the door on every distraction and take on the full yoke of Christ, which includes rest.
