Mark 2:23-28 Sermon

The Sabbath was given as a day to remember God's work in creation, His covenant with His people, and His provision. But more than that, the Sabbath ultimately points us to Jesus, our true Sabbath rest.

Jesus invites us: "Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." (Matthew 11:28)

In Christ, the Sabbath is no longer an obligation but an invitation to rest in Him. The law was a shadow of the greater reality—Jesus Himself (Colossians 2:16-17). Through Him, we find the ultimate rest for our souls.

Take time today to reflect and pray:

1) Lord, forgive me for striving in my own strength.

2) Lord, help me to find my rest in Jesus.

3) Lord, thank You for all You have done to draw me to Yourself.
