Our lives have been changed as we have witnessed major revival in Spain and Argentina and seen God move in countries across the globe. During the past seventeen years as I have served as Director of Global Missions, we have seen the Lord call many new people to the mission field, we\u2019ve started new ministries, and we have begun brand new works in several countries.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the beauty of these experiences, serving so many years without taking a break started to take its toll on me. I would read Matthew 11:28 (NIV), \u201cCome to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest,\u201d and I would think, \u201cWell, I don\u2019t feel very rested; I feel tired.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our Creator knows that our souls need rest; they need time to pull away and unplug. God created the Sabbath, and humans were designed to have times of Sabbath when we allow our minds, bodies, and souls to pause and breathe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the ministry of Global Missions, I\u2019d needed to make several tough decisions and navigate intense challenges, and I had not allowed my mind, body, and soul to assimilate afterward. When we are working for the Lord, whether in the pastorate or in other leadership positions, we feel the need to press on. In a culture where busyness is an obsession and being still is seen as being apathetic, rest is often equated with laziness.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote alignleft\"><blockquote><p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Humans were designed to have times of Sabbath when we allow our minds, bodies, and souls to pause and breathe.<\/mark><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Without rest, however, we can miss the presence of God. He invites us into rest so that we might know Him more deeply. As Mark Buchanan says in his book, <em>The Rest of God<\/em>, \u201cSabbath is both a day and an attitude to nurture such stillness. It is both time on a calendar and a disposition of the heart.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In May of this year, the board of Global Missions allowed me to take a five-week sabbatical. The first week was an adjustment, but as the days progressed, I felt my hunger for God return. I spent long stretches reading the Word and praying (which at this stage involved more listening than talking). As I finally processed the challenging season I had experienced, I felt a new peace sweep over me. I regained focus and ambition for the ministry and remembered what I already knew: God was always in control of everything.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today in the Church we crave revival, longing for spiritual awakening. But to have a spiritual awakening, we need to first have spiritual rest and renewal, which starts by taking a pause (sabbatical). Because the truth is, the work is never done (or never done to our satisfaction). There will always be more work than we can finish. When we rest in God, we are able to encounter the parts of Him we have been missing, which is a gift.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I was in Trinidad during April 2024 for the 70<sup>th<\/sup> Anniversary of Open Bible Standard Churches, we attended several church services. Each time, when an invitation was given to come to the altar after the preaching of God\u2019s Word, the people would swarm to the altar. It was so refreshing to see such a spiritual awakening, to see people so hungry for more of God. However, this time of awakening in Trinidad started after months of intercessory prayer, with people taking time to pause, seek God\u2019s face, and listen to His voice.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">God is always speaking, but we are not always listening. We fail to be intentional, forgetting to pause and connect with Him, ignoring His invitation to boldly enter His throne room and receive what we need. We fail to listen, missing His words that sometimes pierce but always heal.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote alignright\"><blockquote><p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">Sabbatical is more than a vacation; it is a disposition of the heart.<\/mark><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Psalm 42:1-2 says, \u201cAs the deer\u202fpants for streams of water, so my soul pants\u202ffor you, my God.\u202fMy soul thirsts\u202ffor God, for the living God. When can I go\u202fand meet with God?\u201d Just like the deer, if we want God to fill us, we must stop and take the time to drink His living water.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, as I endeavor to incorporate sabbatical into my everyday life, I try to leave work at the office and not bring it home. I know how difficult this can be for us who are in ministry, but the truth is, not everything is urgent. I don\u2019t have to answer the email that came at 6:00 pm. Sometimes I leave my laptop at work or in my car (which is in the garage), so I am not tempted to answer anything after I get off work. Weekends belong to my family, and I try to keep those days sacred, spending time in the presence of my family and the presence of God.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spiritual rest starts when we quiet our minds and allow God to speak to us. Sabbatical is more than a vacation; it is a disposition of the heart that keeps your life focused in the right direction. When our spirits reconnect with the Holy Spirit, we receive healing and renewal on every level, creating space for the spiritual awakening we all long for.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8aa3364d wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"padding-top:2.5rem;padding-right:2.5rem;padding-bottom:2.5rem;padding-left:2.5rem\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"873\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Vince-McCarty-2022-1-873x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19603\" srcset=\"https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Vince-McCarty-2022-1-873x1024.jpg 873w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Vince-McCarty-2022-1-256x300.jpg 256w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Vince-McCarty-2022-1-768x900.jpg 768w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Vince-McCarty-2022-1-600x704.jpg 600w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Vince-McCarty-2022-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 873px) 100vw, 873px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:75%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vince McCarty<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Vince McCarty<\/strong> serves as the Executive Director of Global Missions, giving oversight to Open Bible\u2019s work in 55 countries of the world.
