A Sabbath Rest

The cold is coming back again,
The dark night settles in,
The air is filled with chimney smoke.
Let the long night begin.
 
I’ll step back from life’s hurried pace,
Take time to count blessings,
Then rest until the dawn calls me
To all a new day brings.
 
In You alone my soul finds peace,
A hope to see me through,
And, as a new week commences,
I’ll fix my thoughts on You.

Hebrews 4:9-10
So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God, for whoever has entered God's rest has also rested from his works as God did from his.
