Time Alone-Rest from the Hustle

Even when you are “always doing good” for others, you’ve gotta have some alone time to rest, and in some instances, eat.

Jesus and His disciples had been involved in a long day of teaching and helping others (way over 5,000 to be exact). Can you imagine the level of tired that they were feeling? Jesus recognized that they all needed some rest and nourishment. He knew that His “crew” were “dog tired” and their bodies (and their minds) needed some alone time.

Oh, how we all need to recognize this in ourselves. We can be going in so many directions, being there for everyone, we may forget to take care of what’s happening in our body and mind.

Mind-clearing, quiet time therapy is so needed. Take that time today, so that you can continue to stay strong and be a blessing.

Mark 6:31 NLT

[31] Then Jesus said, "Let's go off by ourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile." He said this because there were so many people coming and going that Jesus and his apostles didn't even have time to eat. #paulaandthebible #helpforyourdailywalk
