On this wise,

'And God did rest

The seventh day

From all his works.' "Hebrews 4:4

God's work?

Compared to our work?

And His rest?

Compared to our rest?

But how can we,

Who oft grow faint

And weary,

Ever learn to rest

Like He

Who never does?Isaiah 40:28

The answer is,

That we never can

Learn to rest like Him,

And we never will

Learn to rest like Him,

Until we learn

To labor like Him.

Like He,

Who labored to create us.Psalm 95:1-6

For in the dawn

Of our beginning,

The very genesis,

Of life on Earth

And Adam's lineage,

Did the Word of God

Who made the World say,John 1:1-14

"Let there be light,"

And then He stopped

To rest,

And blessed

The very first day?Genesis 1:1-5

No,

He didn't.

But if not,

Why not?

Or did our Lord

And Maker,

Mankind's Savior

And Creator say,Isaiah 45:9-12Isaiah 54:5

"Let there be air,"

And then He stopped

To rest,

And blessed

The second day?Genesis 1:6-8

No,

He didn't.
