Exodus 16:23; Mark 2:27
Be a Man in Your Work
There are those who are lazy, and try not to work. Then there are those who work non-stop and end up making themselves sick. Wisdom is not killing yourself in work, but learning the balance between time to work and time to rest. God modeled this for us in Genesis, and reminds us in Exodus, commanding us to take an entire 24-hour period of rest.
This is a time of spiritual renewal, reinvigoration, and time to relax with family. If you don’t take a break, your body will make you. Godly men work when it’s time to work and rest when it’s time to rest.
