Getting Rest

And He said to them, “Come with Me privately to a solitary place, and let us rest for a while.” For many people were coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.

When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you rest, your sleep will be sweet.

There remains, then, a Sabbath rest for the people of God. …

Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. …

I will lie down and sleep in peace, for You alone, O LORD, make me dwell in safety.

He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters.

Then Jesus declared, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.

The sleep of the worker is sweet, whether he eats little or much, but the abundance of the rich man permits him no sleep.

Do not wear yourself out to get rich; be wise enough to restrain yourself.

When you glance at wealth, it disappears, for it makes wings for itself and flies like an eagle to the sky.
