When I initially started writing this blog post, I was making my usual (and favorite) cup of hot English tea and making my breakfast (strawberry toaster strudel & leftover manwich). I was off work today after having a full week of work and overtime. I was so excited to have a day to spend relaxing and doing "me" stuff. I got up later than I usually do which was nice because my work schedule has trained me to wake up before 9, which used to be really early for me. But today I woke up at 10:30 and asked myself "What am I gonna do today?!" I knew the apartment needed to be cleaned and I needed to attend a meeting later in the afternoon. So I forced myself out of bed and was in a daze for a minute. I really had no idea what to with the few hours I had. I literally had to force myself to relax. I wanted to start cleaning right away and doing my normal duties. But I knew that I needed to sit and be calm. So I made my tea and food and watched tv. Then Sam Bam came home and we had a good girl chat. After that, I got dressed and started cleaning the apt. It looks so nice and fresh! And a special thanks to my boyfriend who came over (sleep deprived, mind you) and still helped me clean :)
These are two of my favorite verses about resting :)
Matthew 11:28
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”
Psalm 73:26
“My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.”
Be blessed my peeps!
