Do Yourself a Favor

Friend, do yourself a favor today.

Rest.

What does rest look like?

Rest can look like:

– Pausing the relentless cycle of thoughts fueled by anxiety
– Letting go of the need to control everything and everyone.
– Getting out and enjoying nature.
– Laughing with your friends.
– Playing your favorite game with your favorite people.
– Reading a good book or playing a good video game.
– Turning from the fear of tomorrow and leaning into trusting God for today.

Resting is one of the most powerful things you can do.

Psalms 127:2 says it well, “It is useless for you to work so hard from early morning until late at night, anxiously working for food to eat; for God gives rest to his loved ones.” (NLT)

My friend, do yourself a favor: find time to rest and refill today.

Even if it is only for five minutes.
