This guided prayer reflects on rest in Scripture—from God’s completion of creation to his invitation in Hebrews 4:11 –12 to “strive to enter that rest.” Rest is both a gift that strengthens us and a reward for holding fast to his calling. Let this time with the Lord renew your spirit, remind you that the work he’s given you is holy, and fill you with courage to keep going.
