June - Days of Summer
The lazy crazy days of summer have descended upon us. We travel, we play, but do we rest? On the seventh day, God rested. Never underestimate the power of rest.
Rest brings peace and healing. God rested. as a model for our lives to take time to consider and appreciate what we have accomplished. With warm days of summer comes vacation days or even better, staycation. You might be tempted to make a vigorous schedule for a fun filled event. But somewhere in this time, take a rest. Perhaps go to the beach for the whole day and just watch the waves. Or sit on your front porch, call out to neighbors and make connections have a tendency to fall away during busy times.
Summer is a good time to start a new habit. Take God's example to heart, rest.
