Rest.

'Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.' The words of Jesus, Mark 6 v 31.

Do we sometimes forget what it means to take some time out to rest? Do we sometimes get caught up with the busyness life throws at us and forget what life truly is?? Do we forget to take time out for ourselves or do we just focus on ourselves in other ways?

You know what your answers are to these questions and you probably know what your answers should be. I'm not here to state what is right or wrong as people are individuals and it's different according to circumstance too, but do we prioritise rightly?

This bible verse stood out to me last week and I fell in love with it, with the simplicity but depth of it. To take time out, to go somewhere quiet, by ourselves and to simply rest...to simply be...with Him, with our creator and the only one who can truly bring us rest. Try it. x
