REST is a NECESSITY, not a LUXURY

Rest is a NECESSITY, not a LUXURY!

Remember to take time to PAUSE and REST today!

Your body and brain are beautifully complex machines that work together to keep you safe and well.

Make sure you are being intentional about caring for yourself as much as you do caring for your work and service to others.

You wouldn’t run your vehicle without oil and expect it to run at peak performance.

It will eventually break down on the side of the road, right?

And being stuck for hours or days of forced rest, is much more of a hassle than taking a little time each day for restful habits to maintain wellness.

We all have busy lives and lots of responsibilities to perform each day. Rest will not just come upon us. Exhaustion and collapse may come upon us but not true rest. The Bible says in Hebrews 4:9-12 to “enter into rest” so, we must CHOOSE rest.

Our bodies no longer belong to us, but to God, and He allows us to now be stewards of this temple He dwells in.

Take time to press into God, by reading the Word, listening to the Word, praying the Word, talking to Him as the best friend He is, and turning your attention to Him all throughout the day.

He IS your Helper after all and He lives IN you, so it’s as easy as just turning your attention to your spirit man and saying, “Thank You, Lord, You are with me, You NEVER leave me, and You’re helping me RIGHT NOW! I love You and LOVE being close to You! Right now I breathe IN Your REST and I breathe OUT life’s STRESS.”

What is one restful thing you can do for yourself today? ~Be Blessed, Jenny xoxo
