Rest

Matthew 11:28-29 says:

"Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls."

One of my most favorite things to do is take a nap. It's the most peaceful, relaxing part of my day. Yes, I am a daily nap-taker, I admit it. To me, there are few things more delightful than putting away your cares, to-do lists, and responsibilities for a short time to indulge in some much-deserved rest. Rest... according to God, it is a good thing, something that He gives us. Rest not just for our bodies, but for our souls, our minds, our spirits. If you haven't taken a nap in a while, have one today. Pray that God will take your weariness and troubles upon Him, so that you can find rest in Him. I'll see you when you wake up refreshed and renewed!
