😌Today is Sunday.

A day of rest…

But do we ever rest? What does it mean to rest?

Does it mean we just neglect the daily work? Forget about the chores?

Lately, I have been feeling like we all (myself totally included) take far too much ‘rest’ as it is and not enough focus.

Phones.

How many times do I reach for my phone, use the swipes and clicks to keep my mind occupied while I ‘rest’ from the world???

So I’m switching it up.

When Mason was little there was this book that we would read about the three questions. One of the biggest questions was, “Who is the most important person? The person in the room with you.”

Let’s talk about focus.

If we focus on the people around us, only good things can happen.

If we focus on pursuing our goals, again, good things.

If we focus on block blast…. nothing.

Back to rest- rest in the form of laziness while focusing on what is on the phone has no benefit. It equals an overstimulated dopamine level, abnormal boredom, a bigger butt, and lost relationships and ambition. None of this good.

Now, on Sunday here, resting in God’s peace with those we love- that’s a win.

No phones, no headphones, just being.

Okay, I’ll get off my soapbox. 🧼

💫Today’s Verse:

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
