Times Of Rest

Is your life so busy that you are just caught up in the rush of it and, little by little, some very important things are getting lost in the shuffle? You can only “run” fast so long, and then something needs to change.

If you are too busy for long periods of time, after while you may find that a whole part of your life has gone by and you may not have done some of the things you really wanted to do. Do you take pauses to refresh and reflect on where you are in life? Do you have unfulfilled dreams? Do you still take time to reconsider the course you are on?

Consider the seasons of your life. Make room for fulfillment of something you love in each season so that you don’t lose out on doing something which is a deep desire of your heart.

It is important to say, “Time out for me... time to rest, time to think, time to dream”. In this you’ll find balance. You won’t feel like life is slipping away from you too fast.

“It is vain for you to rise up early, to take rest late, to eat the bread of (anxious) toil - for He gives (blessings) to His beloved in sleep.”
Psalm 127:2 Amplified Bible
