Why Rest Isn't Weak – It's Worship

In a world that celebrates hustle and rewards busyness, rest can feel like failure. But in God's Kingdom, rest is not weakness—it's worship. When we pause, we're saying, "God, I trust You to carry what I cannot." We acknowledge His sovereignty over our striving and His strength over our limits.

Jesus Himself rested. He stepped away from the crowds, withdrew to quiet places, and slept in storms. Why? Because even the Son of God modeled what it means to trust the Father with every moment—including the still ones.

Rest is an act of faith. It tells our weary hearts, "God is working, even when I'm not." It's a holy rhythm that invites healing, renewal, and connection with the One who gives peace.

"So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God." – Hebrews 4:9

Breathe. Be still. He's got you.
