Rest

“My heart pounds in my chest. The terror of death assaults me. Fear and trembling overwhelm me, and I can’t stop shaking. Oh, that I had wings like a dove, then I would fly away and rest! I would fly away to the quiet of the wilderness. How quickly I would escape – far from the wild storm of hatred.” Psalm 55:4-8 David was overwhelmed and longed to rest. We get overwhelmed with life for many reasons. It’s important to get away and rest. Even God made time to rest. (Hebrews 4) We have to make time for ourselves to rest. When we get cranky and tired, it’s because our tanks are empty. The only way to fill it up is to take time for ourselves. What refills your tank? Make time for that and get filled up so you are able to bless others. Rest, bless others, and be blessed.
