Adam Mabry
“But such deep fellowship with God and others can't be microwaved. It takes time. And when we carve out the time, we're rewarded with the relational fellowship for which we were made. We find ourselves loving to carve out the time to focus on our relationship, rather than having to do so. Duty gives way to delight.”
Adam Mabry, The Art of Rest: Faith to Hit Pause in a World that Never Stops

Adam Mabry
“Whatever it is that you're thinking about right now that gets you off the hook of taking Jesus' call to rest seriously, it is probably the thing you actually love and worship more than Jesus. We refuse to rest because, at some deep level, we're convinced that if we stop, the thing for which we're really living won't be fed, pleased, or procured. If you're happier at work than in Christ, rest will never feel good. If you're more of a mother to your children than you are a daughter of the King, stopping may feel like sin.”

“Idol worship is not just displeasing to God (terrible though that is); sooner or later, the false god consumes the worshiper, too.”
Adam Mabry, The Art of Rest: Faith to Hit Pause in a World that Never Stops

“It is a great and glorious truth that we humans were made for the glory of God. To experience and express all the wonders of his manifold attributes is the delightful vocation of his people.”

“Our bodies get tired, so we sleep. If I refuse sleep on the basis that I need to train for a marathon, I will fail to run a marathon, because my body needs rest in order to train. So why would we think it should be all that different with our souls? When our souls are tired, why wouldn't we rest? Jesus seems to have made a habit of this. Are we a bit more spiritually fit than the Lord?”
