Working From Rest: A Prayer Journey

DAY 7 OF 40

Restlessness

Jesus, I confess that I compare myself to others instead of looking to you for guidance. Please forgive me.

The ultimate accusation in this system of ‘never enough’ is that of being lazy – of not having put in enough effort. Whether, for us, it is self-accusation fuelled by comparison or performance anxiety engendered by league tables, we fear being thought lazy. Hence, we choose not to rest.

For reflection: Notice your own ‘self-talk’ about rest. Do you have permission to stop and relax?
