Rest.


So Church was really powerful for me today. Our Pastor just talked about physical rest. He explained that rest and sleep are divine. He shared a few passages in scripture where it just showed Jesus resting. I feel like this is something I know but something I totally don't live by. This is an area that I want to grow in more. We went through Mark 1 : 29 - 39. It talked about how Jesus healed people and drove out demons but then after that he just went to a solitary place to pray. Then everyone started looking for him because there were more people in need of healing but he decided to turn away from the people and move on to the next city. There will always be a need for people so sometimes you have to say no to good things. I want to make rest a part of my rhythm. I want to Be Still before God more often. I don't want to get caught up and lost in the busyness of life. I need to Let God build his church and stop trying to do it myself

This is my bed with my dolphin covers and I am about to go sleep on it. Yes. Rest here I come.
