Resting

Theme: Resting

Verse: Matthew 11:28-30

Rest is important!  Whether it is running, other exercise, or other aspects of our lives, we all need it!

It is hard to say “NO” to perceived important things and in the process, we may find ourselves running ourselves into the ground. 

Some may find it difficult to make time for self-care and when we do often the rest is not the kind of rest we really need. 

So how do we do it?  Our scripture provides then solution when it asks, “Are you tired?”  then provides the solution, “Come to Me.  Get away with me and you’ll recover your life.”

While our kind of vacations are nice and can be useful, why don’t we try more frequent times of getting more restorative rest by spending time routinely with God.  Find something that engages your soul and discover the unforced rhythm of rest in Him.

Have a great (and restful) week!
