  6. The Source of Real Rest Jesus says 2 Things … • Look at Old King David (v.25-26) • Look at Me… (v.27-28) “And he said to them, ‘The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. So the Son of Man is lord even of the Sabbath.’” (Mark2:27-28) • Jesus does not destroy the Sabbath ....He says He Is the Sabbath!

  7. To Really Rest you need the Deeper Rest Jesus Labored to Give you • Find Rest in The Lord of Rest not Religious striving • Find Real Rest to find Regular Rest • Plan for Rest ; Be a Good steward of your time (Eph.5:15-17) • Work from Rest; Rest Well to Work Well
