Sure, REST is a four-letter word, but it isn't one that should be banned from our vocabulary. We are so busy trying to make sure our endless to-do lists are completed that we often forget about taking time, or should I say, making time to really rest our mind, body, and soul.
Rest isn't just a suggestion, it is something that the Lord talks about quite a bit because it is in those times of being still and quiet that we can actually connect with others and with the Lord on a deeper level.
Marci has talked with podcasters and audiences about this topic which is the central theme of her latest devotional published by Tyndale House, "Lakeside Retreat: 40 Devotions from a Restful Shore."
Finding true Biblical rest in our everyday stress helps restore balance in our lives, our families, and the relationships around us.
