Life can become hectic. Even though we have schedules to keep and responsibilities that we cannot neglect, we also need to take care of ourselves. We may have started to hear messages that remind us to slow down and take care of ourselves. We need to take time to rest!
God has reminded us since the time of creation that we need to take time to rest. Our time to rest needs to be more than just a moment to catch our breath between errands. We need to set aside time to be near to God. In those times with God, we can become closer to God. We can turn our problems and worries over to Him and allow Him to rejuvenate us in His Spirit!
Take time to be near to God and to rest in Him!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for taking my worries and cares and allowing me to rest. Help me to be rejuvenated so I can work for Your Kingdom. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
