Gratitude - Day Five

Today I am thankful for rest.


Physical - mental - spiritual - emotional

rest

It can come about in different ways, a quiet cup of coffee, a note from a friend, a moment of silence, a comfy bed to sleep in. However it comes there is something about rejuvenation and stillness that is comfort and safety. 



Jesus said "Come to Me all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest."


Rest from the day, rest from what we cannot understand, rest from what drives us, from what won't let us sleep. Sometimes it is the closing of our eyes to sleep, other times it is a moment for ourselves, but whatever it looks like - I am thankful for it. 


Here are some other ideas for rest.


How do you rest?
