"Sabbaths as a sign between us, so they would know that I the Lord made the holy." I don't think I have ever thought about the Sabbath in those specific terms - a sign between us. Not between me and the world, but between the Lord and I. There are multiple Sabbaths, but the one that came into my head was the 7th day. It is a sign to God that I trust Him and not myself. It is a sign to me that He is my supplier and He has made me "set apart", different than the dog eat dog world.
We all must work - even if you don't have a job. Work is mandatory under the curse of sin and we will work in heaven under no curse. I will gladly farm some great fruits and vegetables in heaven! (I digress) When I cease from working - earning money - I give a sign to God that I trust Him and not me. When I spend my day specifically around God centered activities, I say to Him that you are my all - you deserve a day! Hey, even more than that for me - when I rest from my works in this life I give a sign to God that I trust in the blood of Jesus to attain righteousness, miracles, provision or anything else.
Think for a few moments of how it is a sign from God to us. What does that mean?
