You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you. Isaiah 26:3
New York City prides itself in being ‘the city that never sleeps’ but maybe it should. What is so great about a 24/7rat race pace and a non stop party atmosphere?
Sabbath rest is important and rest in general is crucial. Vacation is important. Getting away alone with God. Having a DAWG day or ‘day alone with God’ scheduled on your calendar where you go to a park or somewhere quiet and reflect on all God has done for you.
When you develop the habit of resting and recharging your life will be so much better. When you do this rest, don’t do it in front of the television, but get a good Christian book, the Bible, or something to help you take your mind off the world for a while and put it on the Savior. Now just go and get some rest and recharge your life for Christ.
PRAYER: Father it is so easy to not ever want to stop going. Help me slow down. Help those in your Christian service who lead churches get their own day of rest as well. Help me not be distracted by things that don’t really matter. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
