SABRINA
2018. We now live in a 24/7 technology-driven world. Work is as close as this device, as are constant text and reminders about everything imaginable. A month’s worth of calendar dates is a swipe away. But God reminds US in Exodus 23:12 when He told Moses and the Israelites, “Six days do your work, but on the seventh day do not work so that you may be refreshed. This is a reminder that God doesn’t see rest as a sign of weakness or laziness, but as a mark of reverence. To observe a day of rest is to announce, “God knows what I need more than I do. If He says to rest, I will rest.” And, as we do, our bodies and minds are refreshed. The key to TRUE rest is to face today and its issues and no more. Meet them with God’s strength. Don’t start tackling tomorrow’s problems until tomorrow. We don’t have tomorrow’s strength yet. Just simply enough for today. If you do not have a church home, I invite you to join us at Central this Sunday as we welcome in 2018. And remember, we no longer have yesterday, we do not yet have tomorrow - we only have today.
