On Sunday we were talking about rest as the final and best part of our work.

The kind of rest that enjoys and recognizes the very good things God has created in our lives.

This week, I set aside time to take pleasure in the good things God has formed in and around me. Some cool things happened. Turns out, there are more good things going on around me than I realized. I was able to notice the beauty of creation, recognize the kindness of people, and rest in the mercy of God. That’s good right? But something even better happened. I was overwhelmed by the sense that God was enjoying and recognizing me as a very good thing in His life.


Genesis 1:31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.
