Yes, I get what you’re saying here Lisa.

Something that has taken me a lifetime to learn! And if want until I couldn’t ‘get on with my day’ that I realised this truth.
blessings, Jennifer

There are days when ‘we’ have things to be done away from home. There are days what I need to accomplish is within the confines of my home (and often at the computer). And there are times He has told each of us to ‘come away and rest in green pastures’. We come to know our bodies and its needs but we also need time for our souls to be refueled in whatever way that is for each of us. Actually that can be most important so we are refreshed to ‘do’ the other that can take up lots of time and energy.

I totally agree with what Lynn commented, too. Too often that “shoulding” mode does depletes us and we so need those times to just “be” to refresh us. Love and blessings to you!

At the time I usually head to the shower, I felt like scrolling through reels at my desk. I wrestled with myself about whether I was taking a needed break or wasting time. I still don’t know. 🙂 All I could figure is that it was the first day in a while that there wasn’t something on the agenda. There are always things to do, but nothing had to be done that day. So it was nice to just enjoy a few moments of relaxation, basking in the freedom of the day.

But I personally find it hard. I’m always yearning for a few days to get away somewhere with nothing to do but read and write but I rarely allow myself that freedom to do that at home. I think we tend to have a works mentality even while we proclaim the gospel. Sigh!

And when I do that, I’m refreshed and creativity is inspired. “Shoulding” on ourselves only leads to a distressed mind; not a refreshed soul! It’s a lesson I have to learn over and over again.
