I love this little part of scripture found in Mark 6:30-31 The apostles gathered around Jesus and reported to Him all they had done and taught. Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, He said to them, "Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest." NIV
So many times we get so busy with taking care of others or meeting the daily demands of living life and we just get wore out, tired, maybe even discouraged or depressed or anxious about all the things we are doing or need to do.
I love how our Savior says...."Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest."......Pull yourself away from all the craziness sometime, someway and find that quiet restful place of soaking in the presence of our Lord today...be refreshed in Him....its okay, its allowed.....your no good to anybody anyway until you are reminded of Who you are In Him.
We are to work and strive to do good for God's glory and the good of others...but in His strength, not our own. We can do nothing apart from Christ. Rest in Him today.
