A Day of Rest


"Too many of us hold to the myth that fatigue is next to godliness. We act as though we believe that God wants us to work until we drop and that only when we drop can we take a break and recover. After our restoration we're back to the insane performance once again.

"Here's a news flash: GOD HIMSELF RESTED. (Genesis 2:2) If God willingly rested, why do we think we shouldn't?

Give yourself permission to rest." Taken from The Mom's Devotional Bible
