INTRODUCTION TO THE SERMON
 
When was the last time you felt really rested? The hurry and scurry and worry of life in southern California depletes us of both physical and emotional resources. Many are sleep deprived. In fact, some have warned that driving while sleepy can be just as precarious as driving while intoxicated! All of which begs the question: When was the last time you felt really rested?
 
Today, our bucket list takes to the pyramids of Egypt. To those who helped erect those wonders of the ancient world, it must have seemed like the job would never be done! “When will we finish? Not in my lifetime!” Maybe you have felt that way. Instead of shrinking, your to do list grows
 
Is there a word from the Lord for such weary people? In a word—yes! And it is to such matters than we turn our focus today.
 
May God’s rest be yours.
