On the sixth day, God didn’t say, “I’m finished”—full stop—as a justification for a day of rest on the seventh. God is in the business of continually creating, and his work is never fully finished. The work you have to do while you are on this earth is never fully finished either. Sabbath isn’t an allowance for rest when the dishes are done, projects are complete, or when your volunteerism is on hiatus.
