Do You Struggle To Rest?

“If you don’t make time for your wellness you will be forced to make time for your illness” (Joyce Sunada).

I’ve been running on empty for the last six years. Despite my body’s cries and pleas to stop, something within keeps me going. It’s as if I believe if I stop, I’ll never start again. But how do cars run if we never take the time to put gas in them? How do engines motor on if we never take them in for a routine oil change? How do minds function if we live in a constant state of relentless overthinking? 

They don’t. But we’ve believed the lie that they do

    Hi Amber, thank you for this thoughtful and beautiful reflection on rest. Have you ever put into practice the 4th of the ten commandments? I decided I was going to be obedient to all of God’s 10 commandments and it has changed my life and brought such beautiful blessings. I actually now do what He says and I rest on the Sabbath day. I’m not sure why it took me so long to submitt to the Lord with this. Remembering the Sabbath brings incredible blessings. Thank you for the blessing of your writing! Have a beautiful day. 🙏 📖 ❤️ 🕊️
