Sabbath rest…says that I don’t need to justify my own existence. It’s an act of resistance against the false god-king of this world who always demands that we do. It’s open rebellion against the systems of this world that demand we do in order to be.
– Adam Mabry in The Art of Rest
Sabbath rest is about regaining our emotional and physical capital from God. It is the act of stopping long enough to breathe in his refreshing power.
Embracing a rhythm of rest means seeing God as sufficient and letting go of your own claim to that attribute.
