When Ezra arrives on the scene in Jerusalem after a long and dangerous journey, he and the many who came with him took three days to rest. Before delivering the money and resource they were carrying to the temple, before sacrificing, before diving in to their important work, they rested. Rest was a very important priority in Jesus' life and ministry as well, not only to recharge but also to hear freshly from His father. We too are learning to rest in God's presence, provision, and goodness.
