"There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His. Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest..." (Heb. 4:9-11)

There is nothing better than a time to rest after a long, laborious and strenuous day. In our fast-moving, rat-race type of society, the simple things become precious. We look forward to times when we can have peace and relaxation for ourselves.

There is a better rest that remains for the people of God. God Himself rested on the seventh day after He had created all things and has been resting ever since. Those who are faithful to the Lord will someday cease from their works as God did from His, and enter into the eternal rest. Let us be diligent to enter into that rest.
