Saying Yes To Rest

Saying Yes to Rest

The Pharisees asked Jesus, “Does the law permit a person to work by healing on the Sabbath?” (They were hoping he would say yes, so they could bring charges against him.) And he answered, “If you had a sheep that fell into a well on the Sabbath, wouldn’t you work to pull it out? Of course you would. And how much more valuable is a person than a sheep! Yes, the law permits a person to do good on the Sabbath.”

Matthew 12:10-12

Write out a plan to keep the upcoming Sabbath holy and set apart from the rest of the week.

What things do you think God would like you to say yes to on that day—perhaps activities that help restore and reset you?

Worship?

Extended time in God’s Word?

Enjoying friends?
