About this listen

“Make every effort to enter that rest.” That’s a strange sounding sentence. Effort and rest don’t usually go together. If I want rest, I don’t need effort. I just stop. Anyone can rest by stopping their effort. But the rest we are talking about today is different. It isn’t a rest that comes from inaction, it comes from work completed. The Christian life is not a life of inaction while we wait for Jesus to come back. It is a life of obedience to Christ as we strive to enter his rest. And when it seems so hard to hold on to the work of obedience, we find mercy and grace to help us from Jesus, the Son of God, our High Priest.
