JONATHAN

Good morning! I’m Jonathan Crabtree, Pastor of Student Ministry at Central – A United Methodist Community in downtown Meridian.

Schools will be finishing the semesters soon, which means one thing:  Summer break! I always loved when school finished for the year because I knew summer break was here. I could stay up later, watch TV, go outside, or do just about anything! But now, as an adult, we don’t get that long summer break like we used too. We have to find a daily means of rest, and a weekly means of rest. Christians sometimes call this “Sabbath” which comes from the Jewish practice. It literally means to stop for an entire day.

What makes you tired? Relationships? Work? The stress of tomorrow? Fear? Finances? Pick a day this week and set down the things that tire your physical and emotional self and find true rest.
