A CALL TO REST
Excuse the Houston humidity hair....real talk ladies....no AI caption here....just a confession from my heart.
I was on a call last night with 2 of my RISE 2.0 Founders talking about stewardship of the body....and today I almost ditched my own advice.
Let me ask....do you ever feel like you have to be ON all the time? Do you ever feel guilty for wanting to "take a break"?
As a widow & entrepreneur I felt like that for almost 16yrs....until I slowed down long enough to realize that being on all the time wasn't working & more important, it wasn't biblical.
Here's what hit me on the bench today friend....rest isn't a reward for doing enough. It's an invitation from the One who already did enough for me. 🙌
Being "on" 24/7 isn't discipline....it's distrust.🤯 That hit....
It's me whispering that I don't believe God can carry the load if I set it down for a minute. Ouch. 😅
If your body & mind is asking for a break it's not only Jesus with an invite but also your nervous system at its breaking point.
So if your "to-do" list is staring at you while you scroll right now....and you've been grinding thru the week trying to prove something to nobody....
This is your permission sit down friend. Lay it down. Not forever....just long enough to remember Who is actually holding it all & give your nervous system a break.
Cool?
Lay on your back as comfortably as possible with a cool rag across your eyes. Place your hand on your chest and breath in and out for 3 seconds each. Do this for 15min. 🙏🏼 Even better, get a prayer in.
