Thankful Thursday - REST

It's thankful Thursday once again and Laurie of Women taking a stand is hosting.

I like what she wrote on her post, it's a reminder to everyone of us to use our time wisely.

This week I am thankful the Lord has given me time to REST. I was sick yesterday and I wasn't able to come to office, and though I feel a lot better today I still opted to stay home and rest. In this chaotic and busy world, we all need to rest at some point and if you are not resting the Lord will force you to rest. I guess that's what He did to me which I am thankful.

What are you thankful for this week?

Hi Rock,

I am so glad that you are feeling. I am praying that God will continue to strengthen you and restore you fully. Thank God you are able to have some time to rest. It is indeed so important to remember to do so in our busy life. I tend to forget too at times.

Thank you for your visit and kind words of encouragement. Take care and have a very blessed week.

Love and prayers,
Nancie

Hope you get your rest!

Good for you! Sometimes we just need to listen to our bodies, slow down and take a rest. Hope you are feeling better now. A day off from work and/or the usual routine is something to truly give thanks for
