Rhythm Of Rest

During a quarterly call with shareholders, the CEO of Netflix discussed the company’s competition. He doesn’t see Netflix’s competitors as other streaming services; instead, the top competition for Netflix is sleep. He has discussed this before. As he said at one point during the call, “When you watch a show from Netflix and you get addicted to it, you stay up late at night. You really—we’re competing with sleep” (Matthew Humphries, “Netflix: Our Biggest Competitor Is Sleep,” PC Mag, April 18, 2017, https://www.pcmag.com/news/netflix-our-biggest-competitor-is-sleep). How closely do you guard the time God has given you to steward, and how seriously do you take his commandment regarding how we use our time? A well-ordered life built on God understands the importance of making the most of our time, which includes taking advantage of a weekly rhythm of rest.
