Did you notice day 9 is missing? That’s because part of pursuing peace for our family is realizing that Sunday is a day of rest. We worship, we gather, but we have made the decision to turn off computers, iphones, and electronics. Yesterday we spent the afternoon getting outdoors, exploring Northern Alabama as a family. We loved crunching the leaves, looking at old houses, and simply getting out in the fresh air.
Part of keeping peace in my heart is the recognition that for peace to exist, my schedule cannot include having so many things to do all the time. To plan for rest, relaxation and play time with our family is as important as to plan for income and employment for Les and I. Recognizing there is a season for everything….and that includes a season of rest each day and week.
