Work and Rest
By Hussain Andaryas | March 9, 2007
Blessings!
Today I had a lab test. My Doctor always tells me; “I want you to live a little longer.” He is kind. I was thinking on the way back about how much work I am doing. What came to me was; “how much rest I am getting?”
How much rest I am getting? I started calculating my life time. I know it was the Lord. He reminded me: “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”
I actually rest more! MORE? a lot, lot, lot more! My life because I have been redeemed is now the life measure of God. Because He lives! Yes because He lives! I live in Him and with Him and that’s for Eternity to come!
OK Lord, I am actually not working but resting. It is You who is at work! John 5:17 cp Gal. 2:20. What I do is live! Yes, I was dead and He gave me life and the work I am doing now, I would NOT be doing at all in the first place. And the work that I do now is nothing compared with the rest I will have in the very, very near future:
But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ–by grace you have been saved–and raised us up with Him and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages He might show the immeasurable riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. Eph. 2:4-7
Suppose this Earth is my life (age), and in that life how much of it actually I work? NOT even like tiny piece of sand.
O dear Lord, thank you for the Life you gave me and for the rest of eternity with you. You are my Rest. May your name be praised!

Dear Andaryas,
God bless you my brother for your commitment to the Most High. He sure has great purposes to fulfill through you. You are special for HIM, very special. As you exercise faith, may God give you immense grace as you face each new day, to glorify HIM.
