“Jesus didn’t come to earth just to get you to heaven.

Forgiveness of sins is just the beginning.

The good news of Jesus is to walk in His power on earth.

God picks people like you and me, flawed people to do His good deeds. We have to remember this phrase, “It’s not about me!!” Be a light in dark places.” – Pastor Rachel Stevens

It’s a great reminder that faith isn’t just about the destination but also about the journey—living out God’s purpose, being His hands and feet, and bringing His love into the world. Walking in His power means stepping out in faith, serving others, and being a light wherever we go.

“For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭10‬

Our sermon this past Sunday was on real joy and how real joy is being filled with the presence of God day by day. So I have been thinking about that some and want to share a few excerpts from an article I found. It states:

According to the Bible, joy is not an accessory to the Christian life, a perk for shiny saints who can turn their frowns upside down. Rather, joy is tenacious. It fights. It grips the promises of God and won’t let go. And joy is not a mere good mood; it is ballast in our boats, an anchor in our storms, an immovable rock to stand on when the waves of life threaten to flatten us.

Despite what our culture tells you, real joy is not found in listening to yourself; it’s found in listening intently to God. It’s found when your “delight is in the law of the LORD” (Ps. 1:2), when your happiness is tethered not to circumstances but to promises, when you can’t get enough of your Bible.

I’ll end with this from John‬ ‭15‬:‭11‬ ‭ESV‬‬, Jesus says “These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.”

I wanted to talk to you today about rest, particularly sabbath rest. I’m sure you’re familiar with the creation story, so I wanted to share from Genesis 2:2-3

“By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it he rested from all the work of creating that he had done.”

Sabbath was a pretty unfamiliar word or practice to me until last year when our small group did a couple studies that went into more detail.

What is it?
Modeled after creation, God rested on the 7th day.
Time to set aside everything to stop, rest, delight, and worship.
Designed by God as a day to give yourself fully to delight in God’s world, in your life in it, and ultimately in God himself.

Historically, having free time used to be looked at as being for the wealthy. Now if you look at not only the wealthy, but most of culture, our lives are defined by busyness and how much can we do.

When you think about what does it look like, it won’t be the same for everyone and varies by stage of life and preferences. One quote I like is:

If you work with your hands, you Sabbath with your mind. If you work with your mind, you may prefer to Sabbath with your hands.

I sit at a desk for most of my work so getting out in nature or doing something active can be “restful” for me.

For my family, we just started making Sabbath a part of our routine over the last few weeks and try to start around 3pm on Saturday to 3pm on Sunday. We start with a family devotional. Then we have a family activity of some sort, meal together, and bedtime, Sunday is typically church, lunch, then individual rest time. We plan to incorporate gatherings with family or friends into our routine as well as it’s not just for individual families.

So I would challenge all of us to evaluate our lives, our busyness, and try to make Sabbath a weekly routine we lead our families through to realize everything we have and need comes from God.
