The Gift of Rest
Thank you, Lord, that you do not limit the number of times I can come to you to receive rest – I am always welcome.
When studying top-class tennis players, Jim Loehr wanted to understand the factors that set apart the greatest competitors in the world from the rest of the pack. He found the key was their use of time between points to maximize recovery. Many lower-ranked competitors had no recovery routines at all.

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.
