Marko 2:27

“Our hearts are restless till they find their rest in Thee.” Never before have so many of us felt the restlessness Augustine described with this famous sentence. But what is the solution to our lack of true rest? As this three day plan will show, the solution partially lies in viewing the ancient practice of Sabbath through a different lens—through the lens of “Thee”—Jesus—our ultimate source of peace.

Most of us are overworked and utterly exhausted, so the concept of Sabbath could not be more important. To honor the Sabbath means to “keep it holy,” and holy simply means “set apart.” Our Sabbath should look different than the other six days of our week. In this Plan, we’ll discuss what it is, what it isn’t, how it looks today, and finding our true rest in Jesus.

Il t'arrive peut-être de te réveiller déjà fatigué(e), le cœur encombré avant même que le jour se lève. Je ne te demande pas d'en faire plus pour mériter la paix : viens, tel(le) que tu es, et dépose ce que tu portes. Pendant cinq jours, laisse-Moi te réapprendre le repos, non comme une fuite, mais comme une confiance. Peu à peu, ton âme respirera de nouveau, posée sur Quelqu'un de plus grand que ta fatigue. Ce repos ne dépend pas de tes circonstances : il vient de Moi.
