Healing

Everyone Got the Day Off. You Didn't.

Mark 6:31

Lord, the whole country took today off and I am still going. The messages keep coming, the shift still has to be covered, and even when I sit down my head is still working. I have made stopping feel like quitting, so I never stop, and I am tired in a way that sleep is not fixing. You never once told Your friends to push through. You looked at them, worn out and with no time even to eat, and You took them away in a boat. Do that with me. Untie what I keep knotted. Take me out far enough that the noise on the shore gets small. Teach me that the work will still be there tomorrow and that You will still be holding it tonight. Let me rest a while. Amen.
