Come and Rest

And Jesus said to His disciples, Come ye apart into a desert place,
and rest awhile: for there were many coming and going, and they
had no leisure so much as to eat.
Mark 6:31

It’s been a busy time...

So I have decided to slow down and pull back a little in order to allow my body to rest, recuperate, and be refreshed.

I’ve been exhausted both mentally and physically. As a result, I have fallen behind with my correspondence and journal writing. But there will be a time in the future to catch up on everything.

For now, however, the Lord Jesus has been telling me to “Come away for awhile, and rest.” This isn’t easy for me. I’m your typical Type-A personality who’s always on the go. Yet rest is needed. Now it’s time for me to learn how to be still.
