It Doesn't All Depend on You- The power of rest!
So... I kinda sorta have been holding in a secret for the last 32 weeks!
I am beyond excited to share with you why it has been so hard to step away from my business and enter into a season of rest as we prepare to welcome baby #3 into our lives. Is slowing down hard for you? Are you always wanting to take the overtime shift? Are you addicted to checking things off your to do list? Do you have millions of projects in your mind that you want to accomplish- now? None of these things are bad necessarily. What a blessing to the world to have people who like to work hard and get things done, however, there is a danger. When we allow things to go unchecked, our hearts believe a lie! Ready for it... "It all depends on us!" Resting and replenishing from work becomes excruciating to enter into when we believe everything will fall apart if we don't do x, y, or z. But this is literally simply not true! WE ARE NOT GOD! And that is a good news!
After an incredibly convicting message at church last Sunday, I am choosing to take God at his word and entrust RKT into his hands as I understand the success of my work doesn't rely on me. What is it for you? Do you need to start saying "no" to certain commitments so you can say yes to rest and the enjoyment of good things in life?
My mother in law Annie would plead with you if she was here to not wait. Life is short. You are never guaranteed your next breath so stop running so hard, striving so deeply, and believing the life that it all depends on you. Bask in the freedom and joy that is found in the reality that you are not God, and that's good news.
