Rest Day
Each Sunday is a Rest Day. There is no new Bible reading to do. Today, the goal is simple: rest in the presence of God. Maybe you need to use today to get caught up on the reading plan if you’re behind, maybe you want to journal what you’re learning so you don’t forget what God is teaching you, or maybe you want to spend time in concentrated prayer–do that. Above all, just spend time in God’s presence.
Each Rest Day, we will have an additional element to help you dig deeper. Sometimes it will be extra resources to further your study, a video to watch, or a podcast to listen to. Sometimes we’ll have a verse to commit to memorize to help you hide God’s Word in your heart.

Refelction Guide
As you reflect on Song of Songs 3-8 this week, ask yourself the following questions:
- Which chapter resonated with you most this week? Why?
- What did this week’s readings teach you about God?
- What did this week’s reading teach you about humanity (and yourself)?

I’m reminded this week that all parts of God’s creation are indeed good. Ultimately, covenantal marriage is to mirror the deep, sacrificial love of Christ (the bridegroom) and his church (the bride).
This past week, I’ve been reminded to compliment my wife more often!
