When Will We Rest?

What if we entered our weekends asking ourselves, “when will we rest?”

I am loving teaching HS Health, and as I teach kids about ways to care for themselves, we have talked about rest. Not sleep, but rest; when we stop moving in our day to renew our minds and refresh our souls, offline.

I thought I’d share this with you as we entered the weekend and look at the days we have ahead. I invite you to join me to…

pause. breathe. pray.

May we fast forward to Sunday night and think about how we want to feel about entering the new week, rested or depleted? If our answer is rested, may we be sure to take steps we need to in that direction. This way when Sunday night comes, we can give thanks for all we did, including what we chose to do to care for ourselves within.

With love and hope,

Shawn

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. - Matthew 11:28
