About This Quote
God presents the Sabbath as a sanctuary where we can relax and feel safe. It is a place of rest and renewal, where we can go to escape from the pressures of our daily lives. We must not only enter the Sabbath rest, but we must also understand how to use it. The Bible says we should “keep” it. If we keep the Sabbath, we will find that we have something better than what we had before: a rested heart and a renewed mind.
