“Someone missed his/her nap.” We used to say that about cranky
children. We now say it about friends our age when they are out of sorts. The
writer of the New Testament letter to the Hebrews tells his readers to be
careful to not miss the rest God has for them. The rest God offers in Christ is
to save us from the frustration of living life solely by our own strength and
our own efforts. And, the ultimate frustration is that if we live our earthly
life without resting by faith in Jesus, we will live in eternity experiencing
God’s wrath rather than His peace. There is a rest we dare not miss.
