Rest

Sept. 2nd

Sometimes you just need rest.  What a great Labor Day!!  We started our morning with a 2 mile walk.  We also pretty much did nothing most of the day and it was great.  We ended up going over to some friends and cooked out and went swimming.  It was nice to just sit back and relax with some great people.  It is important to remember that we need rest sometimes.  Sometimes we just need a break from it all.  Not just our bodies.  Our minds need a break as well.  Sometimes we just to reenergize or refuel.  Running yourself into the ground provides no benefit. Sometimes that means saying NO.  I find that is one of the hardest things for me to do at times.  I always want to be able to help or go to every event/fellowship outing.  However, sometimes we just got to take some time for ourselves.  It can seem selfish.  However, we can see where even Jesus took time away.  We must make sure we are getting what we need and taking care of our families first.  I hope you all where able to get some time to yourself or some time to relax.  If not try to schedule some time away from everything.  Be sure to spend time with God and let Him refresh your mind, body, and soul.
