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 Psalms 105-110 this week, ask yourself the following questions:
- Which psalm 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)?

What continues to resonate with me throughout the psalms is the necessity of praise to honor our God, recalibrate our mind, and route the enemy. Today as we gather as a body of believers, Psalm 109:30 is my focus, “With my mouth I will greatly extol the Lord; in the great throng of worshipers I will praise him.”
Yes! It is a high calling (our highest?) to worship God!
Been reflecting on this passage over the past week . . .
Psalm 106:47 Save us, Lord our God,
and gather us from the nations,
that we may give thanks to your holy name
and glory in your praise.
We are saved for the purpose of gathering to give thanks and praise!
