What does the Bible say: Rest

The Bible speaks a lot about rest. It is a repeated theme throughout Scripture, beginning with the creation week (Genesis 2:2-3). God created things for six days; then He rested, not because He was tired but He rested to set the standard for mankind to follow. The Ten Commandments made resting on the Sabbath a requirement of the Law (Exodus 20:8-11). The command to rest was not an excuse to be lazy. They still had to work for six days to get to the Sabbath.

God wants us to rest but resting does not come naturally to us. To rest, we have to trust that God will take care of things for us. We have to trust that, if we take a day off, the world will not stop turning.

For the Christian, the ultimate rest is found in Christ. He invites all who are “weary and burdened” to come to Him and cast our cares on Him (Matthew 11:28; 1 Peter 5:7). It is only in Him that we find our complete rest, from the cares of the world, from the sorrows that plague us, and from the need to work to make ourselves acceptable to Him. In Christ, we find complete rest. We can rest Christ not just one day a week, but always.

“Why do we call it Good Friday? I mean, I get it, but wouldn’t Good Sunday be more sensitive, more appropriate? Sure, from our vantage point we understand what happened that day as the redefinition of goodness, Goodness personified and bleeding out in my place. But that day it wouldn’t have felt good, and Saturday certainly wouldn’t have been any better. Days of chilling silence. We didn’t name it for how the day itself felt. We look with the lens of later - the vantage point of Sunday - and we call it good. Makes me wonder which if my dark days (weeks, months) I’ve labeled wrong simply because I labeled them prematurely. Times when I threw in the towel right before the stone made way for redemption. Or times when I named my day rather than letting Him. Like the Garden, God still looks at what He’s made and says, “It is good”. He names the day. If it doesn’t look good yet, your Sunday is still on its way. Because anything He starts He finishes, standing back with a smile that overcame the world and a “It is good” that is louder than a thousand oceans and brighter than all my dark Fridays.”

Isaiah 26:4

“I wonder how they could yell Barabbas instead of Jesus. I wonder how they sang Hosanna and days later, Crucify him. I wonder how Pontius could wash his hands of it, as though a dirty conscience could be so easily cleaned. But – I am Barabbas, sinner set free. I yell Crucify him as I sing praises with ease. I am Pontius, who turned a blind eye to glory. And yet, so Christ still died for me. Still he died, where I should be, a perfect love on that tree.”
