In six days God completed His work.

Took day off; needed rest; didn’t shirk.

Then said, "Do as I do".

Stick with that, friend, and you

The number 7 in the Bible always represents a completed cycle; the number 8 a new beginning.  It’s a Bible pattern.  Our chromatic scale reflects it in music.  Go to www.biblelimericks.com, Archives, "2 Chronicles 7: 1-10, Glory Octave" for more on the music comparison.  For the believer, Today is the day of rest.  Read the link below.
