Run / Rest: A 40 Day Journey Toward RestSample
Too much RUN and not enough REST is bad for you.
๐ ๐ฅ๐๐๐: Psalm 127:2
๐ ๐ข๐๐ฆ๐๐ฅ๐ฉ๐
Often, we think we have to keep running until late at night, and then get up first thing in the morning to get running and active again. Todayโs reading from Psalms calls this โuselessโ! Why do you think the writer of this Psalm would say itโs useless to go to bed late and wake up early?

How could you develop a pattern of rest for yourself? How could you get more rest or sleep? This is God giving you FULL PERMISSION to get lots of sleep! ๐ด ๐ด ๐ด
Write out a prayer asking God to give you wisdom. This wisdom is to help you decide what needs your full attention and what you can let go of. Ask God to show you how you can let go of some things so that you can get the rest you need.

About this Plan
Stress. Anxiety. Chaos. Hustle. Worry. Busyness. These are words you might be thinking about, talking about, and experiencing pretty regularly. It sometimes feels like weโre stuck running a race to get things done, be the best, do everything, and earn everyoneโs approval. But if you want to keep running, youโve got to rest. For the next 40 days, what if you made it a habit to rest in Godโs presence?
