Luke 10:38-42
38
13 As they continued their journey he entered a village where a woman whose name was Martha welcomed him.
39
14 She had a sister named Mary (who) sat beside the Lord at his feet listening to him speak.
40
Martha, burdened with much serving, came to him and said, "Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me by myself to do the serving? Tell her to help me."
41
The Lord said to her in reply, "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things.
42
15 There is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part and it will not be taken from her."

...and rested the seventh day, wherefore the Lord thy God blessed it, and hallowed it...in it thou shalt not do any work, thou nor they son, nor thy daughter, nor thy manservant, thy maidservant, nor thy ox, nor thy ***, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates.
Come all ye who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Aside from Bible verses, He has taught me that if I take a step of faith and set aside one day of the week to rest in Him, then He will multiply my energy and help me to get through all my work the rest of the week. I'm sure that it would work like that for everyone.

Be still, and know "that I am"(grace) [is] God.
When "I am" (grace) weak, then "am I" (law) strong.
Conversely when am I(law) weak, I am(grace) strong.
Enmity: I will forsake you, the city, your fathers... Law
Friend: I will never leave thee nor forsake thee... Grace
Grace(is) + Law(added) is as if Friend + Enmity(added).
Christ is our peace who abolished the law(enmity): Eph 2.
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus->Christ with you all. Amen.
