90. Seizing Your Sabbath w/Elizabeth Schmus
Manage episode 463169643 series 3340954
We can all struggle at times with feeling the tug to work too much... even to the point of allowing ourselves to rest only as a reward for "finishing," but we're reminded that's not a habit God designed us to have. One of the spiritual Mamas of the Christian Educators movement, Elizabeth Schmus, shares with us her own journey of finding rest in "work" by instilling the practice of Sabbath and holding tight to her weekly time in the Word of God. The Lord is inviting us to commune with Him through rest-- resting on the truth of His Word not only by helping us hold onto promises during trials, but in more peaceful seasons as well.
Making a Sabbath rest part of our weekly routine can literally revolutionize the way we prepare our hearts and minds to live on mission with Jesus. In the space of rest we're able to reset with Father God in the unique ways He made us-- through play, physically resting, being alone, creating, or gathering with friends and family. The God of the Sabbath is inviting us to join Him in resting from our work one whole day a week. Thank you for joining us for a continued conversation about setting boundaries that help us maintain a healthy heart and mind... and maybe even a healthy body, as I know rest for some is physical activity!
