Sabbath rest: God's greatness

Purpose: The main purpose of resting in God's greatness is remembering that our problems here on earth are nothing compared to the greatness of God.  God is bigger than the things that overwhelm us or overtake us here on earth.   There is a verse in a Isiah that says his ways and thoughts are bigger than us.
Verses: Psalm 19.
Application: Once we rest in God's greatness daily, our problems seem small compared to how great and mighty our God is.  By going to God, he can take away the pain in our lives.  When we remember how big our God is, then we can remind ourselves that God can redeem us from the struggles of this world and fix our mind on the surpassing greatness of God that Paul describes in Corinthians.
Conclusion: Resting in the greatness of God, puts the focus in our struggles on God alone (the master of all circumstances), and not the one true provider, God almighty.
