God’s Glory in Our Work and Rest
Deuteronomy 5:12-15 & Exodus 20:1-2, 8-11
God’s glory is the shining forth of His inward characteristics and His very being. What we perceive of God, we call glory. Last week we focused on how God is glorious in His work of creation and salvation and also in His rest. Today’s message (Labor Day weekend) we explore God’s glory in our work and rest.
