Are you exhausted and tired today? Or are you nervous and need something to slow you down? Need a break from hectic, demanding busy life and schedules ?Perhaps what the body really crying and asking for is simply rest. Where can we find rest in this tension- filled world ?
Mark 6:30 -40 The apostles gathered together with Jesus and they have reported to Him what they had done and taught. And Jesus said to them; come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a while. When the disciples returned from missionary journey, they were elated with the surprising outcome. They enthusiastically shared how God had worked. Jesus was glad to hear the productive outcome, but He knew they needed physical rest after their very long arduous journey. He invited them to secluded place and rest with Him. We too need to recharge and refresh ourselves to maintain our physical and spiritual strength and body. We have this constants everyday life schedules that demanding to be met and need to be done, there's time we felt drained in our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual life.
God's Holy Spirit gives us strength to meet our schedules and a time schedule to meet Him too in a quiet place . God's plans for us to include times for rest and relaxation in our schedules. Like the disciples we needed rest too. Our rests time may consist of a vacation where we can rest and relax or a simply change of environment for seclusion or quiet time
Time spend with the Lord brings renewal and refreshment.
Be still, and know that I am God Psalm 46:10
Come to me all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest.Matthew 11:28
