Working From Rest: A Prayer Journeyਨਮੂਨਾ

Resting in His Embrace

Thank you for the privilege of working with you, Father. May I exercise the authority you give me well.
Resting in His embrace restores us. The son’s rags and dirt are covered with a robe of distinction. He is given the status (sandals) and authority (ring) of a son. Yes, there will be work for him to do in due course, but he will be working with his father as a son, not for him as a slave. The far country, where he had hoped to find life, was deadening. He is revived in the father’s arms, knowing he is a beloved son.
For reflection: Are you aware of your status and authority as a son/daughter of God?

About this Plan

Sabbath rest is essential to our identity as God’s people: a gift to refresh us and equip us for good work. But many of us find it hard to do. This prayer journey will help you explore the reasons for restlessness, God’s gift of rest, and how your work – in your job, your home, or your street – can flow from that place of rest and connection with Him.
