As a faith led woman, do you struggle to rest? Do you feel guilty when you rest? Does your mind play a continuous loop stating all the reasons why you shouldn't be resting? The truth is rest is a very important and necessary way for our bodies and minds to reset, repair and recover. God created rest. God created the sabbath for His children. Sometimes we may feel as Christian women that we are to be doing "all the things" for everyone else and that it is selfish to take time for ourselves to rest. But is that what God really in...

As a faith led woman, do you struggle to rest? Do you feel guilty when you rest? Does your mind play a continuous loop stating all the reasons why you shouldn't be resting?

The truth is rest is a very important and necessary way for our bodies and minds to reset, repair and recover. God created rest. God created the sabbath for His children.

Sometimes we may feel as Christian women that we are to be doing "all the things" for everyone else and that it is selfish to take time for ourselves to rest.

But is that what God really intended for His Daughters?

I have found there are 3 ways Christian women specifically struggle with resting:

Mentally/emotionally
Physically
Spiritually

Could surrender and rest be what God is asking you to do? Could surrender and rest be what God is showing you that you need?

Today, I share my story with a recent trip I took and my very own personal struggle with resting. I share the beautiful and gentle way God guided me back to Himself and to the fact that REST was exactly what I needed at that time.

I even confess that I ignored the signs my body was showing me to rest and continued to push on even though I really wasn't all that "productive" anyway. Definitely not what a health coach should be doing, right?

If this sounds like you friend, grab a mug of coffee or tea and settle in for my story on rest that I hope encourages you in some way!

I pray this blesses you today!
