A Prayer of the Day. (Seeds of Shalom) https://www.facebook.com/Seeds-of-Shalom-863967120338361 "There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God's rest also rests from his own work, just as God did from his." (Hebrews 4:10 NIV)

Thank you, Lord, for sharing your rest with us. You created heaves and the earth and all in it. You saw them, it was very good, and you rest. We can rest in your creation where you prepared all we need. We can enjoy the wonder and beauty of nature. We know we need rest, not only physically, but also mentally and spiritually. But it is so difficult to rest because we think that our lives depend on us. So, we become a god of our lives. Oh Lord, forgive us of acting like a god and refusing you. Lord, help us to know that you are in control, so we can trust in you and stop worrying. We want to have a comfortable life, but we become slaves of work, money, reputation. Oh Lord, bring us out from the slavery and lead into your kingdom. Lord, we also pray for those who do not know you yet. May you reveal yourself to them. May you help them to know you are God who created them and gave them life. May you help them to know that their lives depend on you and they can rest in you by trusting you. In Jesus name, amen.
