Get the appRest With Your FinancesSample
For driven people like me, choosing to take a day off is often an incredible act of faith. It can be terrifying—and sometimes even feels irresponsible—to intentionally do nothing when so many important things need to be done—and done right away.
But the Sabbath is an invitation to trust God with these things on our to-do list. It’s an opportunity to say, “God, this seems urgent and important, but I choose to let it sit until tomorrow and instead rest and enjoy this day that you have made. I choose to trust that you are fully in control and that you will work out all the things on my plate.”
You might use the same argument that I used for years when fighting against the idea of embracing the Sabbath: “I don’t deserve to rest until I get my work done.” But we both know the truth: the work is never done.
We don’t deserve the rest that he offers. But he provides it for us to enjoy as a free gift. Like other gifts of God, it needs to be received through faith. But as with every other gift he offers, it is there for us whenever we are ready to accept it.
We just need to reach out in faith and receive it.

About this Plan
When you think about finances, do you think rest? Or do you get an anxious feeling? Maybe you feel flustered or shameful or even prideful? Most everyone we speak with has an initial gut reaction to this topic, but as Christians, we know God has called us to rest in all areas. So we want to explore what it looks like to rest when it comes to your finances.
