Rest Strategies For Enhanced Productivity
Have you ever noticed how somedays are filled with activity yet nothing seems to get done? I worked all day yesterday caring for our new puppy, working in the home and writing.
I ended up breaking a tooth on a carrot in my salad and with a migraine. I felt stressed out, exhausted and frustrated.
So last night I spent some time listening to the word of God. The scripture sowed seeds of peace and hope in my spirit. It calmed me and changed my perspective on resting in his mercy versus checking off items on my lists.
As I ran past a log this morning it struck me how the large mushrooms sprouted over night on a seemingly ‘dead’ log. It reminded me that resting in God produces more fruit than all of our efforts combined. I realized then that I got more done in one morning than I had all day!
A good night’s sleep helped too.
I’m grateful God writes the story. Aren’t you?
