Quiet Moments - Times of Rest

It is in the quiet moments with God that we build our strength
and refresh our souls.
The past two weeks have been exhaustingly busy for me as well as a bit emotional. No big deal in the scheme of things, yet I feel drained.
And today, as I attempt to write this blog, my mind is blank! Rarely am I without words! Today I am. So, today I ask that you please forgive me for not providing a new blog post.
Instead, I ask that you take this time with me, this week, to simply spend time in Christ’s presence. Let’s be still and focus on Him. Let’s rest in Him and allow Him to build our strength and refresh our souls. We probably need to do this much more often than we do!
Will you join me?
Thanks for understanding!
Love and hugs,
Dear Lord, some days I simply need to stop and rest. Push the world away. Shut the door on my thoughts and concerns. Then curl up right beside You and allow Your strength, love, peace and power to seep back into me. Please, Lord, recharge my batteries with Your presence and reboot my mind with Your Holy Word. I need You to fill me up again! Amen
Yes, thanks for this positive message. We don't always have to be busy.
You are so right! I was just e-mailing a friend who had asked if I was okay. He thought I was dealing with depression. No. I was dealing with life, with changes in some of the areas that I had become comfortable with that are changing and taking away benefits (new web sites to navigate and changes to what I was used to getting; too long to go into). Plus, I'm dealing with serious issues with two of my sweet fur babies. My frustration was high. I reminded him and myself that Jesus said there would be trouble in this world. If this is the worst trouble I ever have, I will count myself blessed and highly favored…
Prayers for you during this time of refurbishing, reconnecting and renewing. Love 💘
