If I do not
trust
You
enough to get
my daily rest,
I will continue
to burn myself
up and out,
constantly turning back
to recovery mode,
during which my recovery
seems to happen
more
and
more
s
l
o
w
l
y.
The idea of
slowing
and
stopping
this morning
makes me incredibly anxious,
but I know
in my head
that rest and balance
are what
You
want for me.
You also know
what I truly
need to accomplish
today
and
every
day.
Knowing about rest
and
how to rest
is not the trick.
It’s actually trusting
You
enough
to rest
e
v
e
r
y
day.
I feel
I’m stepping over
a threshold
with
You
today
at 9:18 a.m.
I want to live
a healthy life
with
a healthy balance.
I not only
want this for myself,
but I want
to model this
for my
family
and
friends,
because we all need
balance
and
true
rest.
Rest.
I accept
this invitation
from
You
in
trust.
May
I
find
true daily rest in
You
this
day…
