“And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.”
Mark 6:31 KJV
The disciples were so part of the busyness of being alongside Jesus Who went about healing all who came to Him, that they had no time to even eat. Jesus is still concerned with His disciples taking time to rest! It is a fallacy that Christ’s disciples should suffer and be overwhelmed with Christian work with no leisure to rest. The zeal for the Lord & His work must needs be balanced with rest. Let’s ask the Holy Spirit to help us enter into the Lord’s rest and have the hope of His goodness with confidence when we rest, of Him using us to be about our heavenly Father’s business. Let’s labour to enter into His rest!
