Dear Friends,
In our fast-paced world, rest often feels like a luxury instead of a necessity. But in God’s design, the rhythm of rest is sacred - woven into creation itself. When we honor rest, we’re not being lazy - we're being obedient. Rest is where we release control, lean into trust, and allow God to replenish us.
“Resting in God is a conscious choice to redirect our thoughts. To allow His love and truth to overpower our fears, disappointments, impossibilities and brokenness. When we choose rest, we are allowing Him to be bigger than what we face. And far from weak, lazy, or passive, rest is a better strategy. A powerful weapon that releases God to be God.” - Aimee Walker
Whether it’s a quiet walk out in nature, a digital detox, or a nap, self-care anchored in faith isn’t selfish - it’s stewardship. God created you to flourish - and that includes rest. What would it look like accept the invitation for summer to be filled with peace, purpose, and God’s perfect rhythm?
To to help you get started with creating a rhythm of rest in your life, my gift to you is this downloadable PDF, Sabbath Reset: A Guided Reflection (click to open).
Prayer: "Lord, thank you that You created me to flourish, which includes rest. In a season that tempts me toward hustle and hurry, draw me instead into Your holy rhythm. Teach me to rest - not as escape, but as sacred practice. Quiet my heart so I can hear Your whisper. Align my days with Your pace of peace. Let this summer be a gentle unfolding. One where I flourish not by striving, but by abiding. Remind me that Your presence is my peace, and Your rest is my renewal. Amen."
More for you to flourish: If you’ve been feeling weary, run-down, or like your soul is on empty...this one's for you. In my Faith & Fitness Series Sabbath & Soul-Care - we explore the gift of rest - how Sabbath and self-care aren’t selfish, but sacred. 💗 Come be reminded: Your worth isn’t found in hustle. It’s found in Him. Watch the linked video replay and soak it in.
