We are all busy in our lives. There are different demands that pull us in many different directions. Even when we feel we cannot stop to take a breath, we need to rest. Our bodies, minds, and souls need to be able to recharge.
God reminds us that we need time to rest. He showed us that it is good to rest as He did after the work of creating. God knows what we need. Rest, whether time to relax, to sleep, or clear our minds, is essential for our well-being. We can take time to unplug from our busy schedules and to meditate on God and His Word. When we take time to rest and focus on God, we can recharge for our lives!
Follow the example that God has set and take time to rest!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for showing me that I need rest. Help me to take time to rest and to meditate on You and Your Word. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
