Monday: Running on Empty
Lack of sleep and exhaustion due to physical overexertion are real problems. More troubling, however, is when we feel that we are running on “emotional empty.” And, of course, when lack of sleep is added to emotional trials, we can become painfully discouraged.
Baruch, Jeremiah’s scribe, must have felt like that often during the last turbulent years of Jerusalem, prior to the chaos, suffering, and havoc that would follow the city’s destruction by the Babylonians.
Read Jeremiah 45:1-5. Write a quick diagnosis of Baruch’s emotional health.
Can you imagine what it would feel like if God would send a custom-made message to you personally? Baruch received a message straight from God’s throne room ( Jeremiah 45.2-3 represents a good summary of how people feel when they are running on empty.
From all that we know from Scripture about this period, it’s clear that Baruch’s complaints were not superficial wails. He had good reasons to feel discouraged and emotionally worn out. A lot of bad things were happening, and more were to come.
How does God respond to Baruch’s aches and pains? Read Jeremiah 45.4-5.
God’s response to Baruch’s real pain reminds us of the fact that God’s despair and pain must have been exponentially so much bigger than Baruch’s. He had built Jerusalem; He was about to tear it down; He had planted Israel as a vineyard (Isaiah 5:1-7); He was about to uproot it and carry it into exile. This was not what the Lord had wanted for His people, but it had to come because of their rebellion against Him.
But there was light at the end of the tunnel for Baruch. God would preserve Baruch’s life — even in the midst of destruction, exile, and loss.
Read again the words of God directed to Baruch. What general message can we take from them for ourselves? That is, what does it say about God ultimately being there for us, regardless of our situation? |

1: Living in a 24-7 Society – Singing with Inspiration
Rest. The word used most frequently in our Sabbath School Lesson pamphlet this quarter. “Thou shalt rest, Thou shalt rest!” These are words repeated each verse of
Hymn 387 – Come, O Sabbath Day, our theme hymn for this quarter.
Sabbath afternoon’s introduction leaves us with a daunting question that is answered in
Hymn 495 – There Is a Place of Quiet Rest.
This old world is ‘Worn and Weary’ we find in Sunday’s study time. The hymn that helps find an answer is
Hymn 441 – I Saw One Weary because you
Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus – Hymn 290. A further answer is then revealed at the end of this study
Holy Sabbath, Day of Rest – Hymn 381 and
Hymn 390 – We Love Thy Sabbath, Lord.
When we are ‘Running on Empty’ (Monday), we request “Breathe, O breathe, Thy loving Spirit into every troubled breast” from
Hymn 191 – Love Divine. “it soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds, and drives away his fear” is a wonderful gift because of Jesus –
Hymn 238 – How Sweet the Name! We can then
O Sing, My Soul, Your Maker’s Praise – Hymn 37 where we find Jesus “providing comfort to the weak and grace for each tomorrow”.
The rest of the weeks’ study shows there is a time to say
My Faith Has Found a Resting Place – Hymn 523. It is then a joy to sing
O Day of Rest and Gladness – Hymn 382/383 and
Hymn 391 – Welcome, Welcome, Day of Rest. These hymns are the opposite to poor Cain and his restless wandering.
May you have a blessed week in this, the commencement of the third quarter of 2021.
To learn unknown hymns, you will find the accompaniment music for each one at: https://sdahymnals.com/Hymnal/
Another great resource is for when there is a hymn you wish to sing, but can’t find it in your hymnal. Go to https://www.sdahymnal.org and in the search bar type a special word in that is in the hymn. I am sure you will be amazed at the help you will be given.
2 Timothy 2:15 KJV – “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”

TELL THE WORLD [Spielfilm] Die Geschichte der Kirche der Siebenten-Tags-Adventisten
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AblftDeWXI
Der Film „Tell the World“ erzählt die spannende Geschichte von einer kleinen Gruppe von Farmern im Nordwesten der Vereinigten Staaten, die den Grundstein für die Kirche der Siebenten-Tags-Adventisten gelegt hat. Seit dem 19. Jahrhundert zählt die Kirche zu den Vorreitern auf den Gebieten wie Gesundheit, Bildung, Kommunikation und Bibelauslegung. 00:00 Episode 1: William Miller: Der Prediger

02:07:22 Episode 6: Glauben teilen Über den Film "Tell the World" Der Film „Tell the World“, der auf wahren Begebenheiten beruht, erzählt die spannende Geschichte von einer kleinen Gruppe von Farmern im Nordwesten der Vereinigten Staaten. Sie waren die Begründer einer Bewegung, die mit Themen wie Gesundheit, Bildung, Kommunikation und Bibelauslegung auf sich aufmerksam machte. Der Film beginnt mit einer alarmierenden Entdeckung, die der Farmer und ehemalige Leutnant in der Vermont Miliz, William Miller, gespielt von Bill Lake, machte. Nach jahrelangem Bibelstudium stand für ihn fest, dass Jesus 1843 wiederkommen würde. Seine Predigten in Verbindung mit biblischen und historischen Beweisen waren so überzeugend, dass Tausende alles verkauften, ihre Sünden bekannten und mit großer Spannung auf das Ereignis warteten. Schließlich wurde ein Datum gesetzt: der 22. Oktober 1844. Aber der Tag verging und Jesus kam nicht wieder. Außer Miller und seiner Frau Lucy, gespielt von Kate Hurman, blieben nur wenige Menschen Gott treu, unter ihnen Ellen Harmon (Tommie Amber-Pirie), James White (Stephen MacDonald) und Joseph Bates (Timothy Paul Coderre). Der Film, der von der Kirche der Siebenten-Tags-Adventisten in Australien produziert wurde, zeigt sehr eindrücklich, welchen Schmerz und welche Freude Autorin Ellen White erlebte. Das Smithsonian Institute zählt sie zu den 100 einflussreichsten Personen in der amerikanischen Geschichte. Es war ihre Führung und Beratung, die sie aufgrund von Bibelstudium, aber auch durch Träume und Visionen von Gott erlangte, die diese Kirche schrittweise zu einer weltweiten Bewegung machte, die ihr besonderes Augenmerk auf die Bereiche Gesundheit, Bildung, Gemeinwesen und Katastrophenhilfe richtet. Die Freikirche der Siebenten-Tags-Adventisten ist gegenwärtig in mehr als 200 Ländern vertreten und hat 19.5 Millionen Mitglieder. Sie verwaltet tausende Bildungs- und Gesundheitseinrichtungen, Gesundkostwerke und eine weltweite Hilfsorganisation. Alle drei Minuten wird eine neue Gemeinde gegründet. Für diese größte Filmproduktion, die jemals zur Geschichte der Freikirche gemacht wurde, schrieben H. G. Sloan und Aaron Harzler das Drehbuch, Regie führte Kyle Portbury, und Allan Lindsay, George Knight und James Nix fungierten als Berater. Der Film zeigt die schwierigen Anfänge der Kirche. Ungewissheit, Zweifel, Tod und Armut waren die Herausforderungen dieser damaligen Pioniere. Wer sich „Tell the World“ anschaut, wird wahrscheinlich an die eigene religiöse Erfahrung erinnert, und der Schluss liegt nahe, dass sowohl die Enttäuschung als auch der spätere Erfolg dieser Bewegung der Schlüssel zu ihrer Entwicklung auf allen Ebenen war. Dieser Film will aufzeigen, dass dieselbe Botschaft, die zunächst für Tausende eine Enttäuschung war, inzwischen Millionen Menschen Hoffnung vermittelt: Jesus kommt bald!

Sunday: Worn and Weary
Read Genesis 2:1-3. Why would God create a rest day before anyone was even tired?
Even before humanity would dash off on our self-imposed stressful lives, God established a marker, a living way to jog our memory. This day would be a time to stop and deliberately enjoy life; a day to be and not to do, a day to especially celebrate the gift of grass, air, wildlife, water, people, and, most of all, the Creator of every good gift.
This was no one-time invitation that expired with the exile from Eden. God wanted to make sure that the invitation could stand the test of time, and so right from the beginning He knit the Sabbath rest into the very fabric of time. There would always be the invitation, again and again, to a restful celebration of Creation every seventh day.
One would think that with all our labor-saving devices that we should be less physically tired than people were two hundred years ago. But, actually, rest seems to be in short supply even today. Even the moments when we aren’t working are spent in frantic activity. It always seems that we are somehow behind; no matter how much we manage to get done, there is always more to do.
Research shows, too, that we are getting less sleep, and many people are highly dependent on caffeine to keep going. Though we have faster cell phones, faster computers, faster internet connections, we still never seem to have enough time.
What do the following texts teach about why our having rest is important? Mark 6:31, Psalm 4:8, Exodus 23:12, Deuteronomy 5:14, and Matthew 11:28.
The God who created us knew that we would need physical rest. He built cycles into time — night, and Sabbath — to offer us a chance of physical rest. Acknowledging Jesus as the Lord of our lives also involves taking seriously our responsibility to make time to rest. After all, the Sabbath commandment isn’t merely a suggestion. It is a commandment!
What about your own harried existence? What can you do to better experience, both physically and spiritually, the rest that God wants us to have? |
