GENESIS 2:2-3
People sometimes work hard in order to get things they do not actually need, or to impress people they do not really like.
Lack of rest has become a widespread epidemic. Health professionals warn that not getting enough sleep shortens our lifespan by years. Also, it may make us eat incorrect foods (especially fast foods) because we are always on the move. These could result to poor mental and physical health.
How can we achieve a healthy work-life balance? After creating everything from nothing, God relaxed and looked over His accomplishment. While still holding the world in His hands, He rested. Rest is not to relinquish responsibility.
Many people today have forgotten how to take time out and appreciate being still and doing nothing.
Do you find it difficult to slow down? It is time to choose whether you want to continue to suffer from an overactive mind and body or learn how to command them to stop, and discover your resting rhythm and space.
🙏Lord, help us to learn the art of resting.
