Season’s Greetings -
At the beginning of November, I took a much needed break
from technology. For a few days, I fasted from using my cell phone; that meant
no calling or texting family or friends. It was a ‘solitary confinement’
specifically and lovingly planned by the hand of God through a ministry called www.soulrest.org
Sheryl loves by preaching at a
local church - “and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.” James
1:27b
Rest is high priority with God. He rested after the six days
of creation, on the seventh day, “God had finished all the work he had been
doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work,” Gen. 2:2. God has made us to function best with
adequate amounts of rest for our body, mind and soul. God’s plan for me at Soul
Rest was for me to hold still long enough for Him to love me.
I had come with
anxious questions, an over-thinking mind and an absence of inner peace. At Soul
Rest, I had permission to sit and read, worship, listen, wait, focus on God –
what amazing remedy. Within a few hours, it didn’t matter whether or not I received
answers to my questions. I had gotten
back to basics: “Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and
with all your soul and with all your mind.’ “Matt. 22:37
“Stand at the
crossroads…” Cayucos sunset
Everything goes back to loving and worshipping Jesus. “You
will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast because he trusts in
you.” Is. 26:3 It seems so simple, doesn’t it. Love God, Worship God. For many of us, we must give ourselves
permission to turn off our phones and computers. It’s ok to stop. This
Christmas season, won’t you give yourself and Jesus a gift? Instead of spending
money on people who don’t need anything, give the gift time. Spend extra time with
others and with God. “Be still and know that I am God.” Psalm 46:10
Much Love and Happy Holidays,
Sheryl

Self-love and sparing time for yourself is really important because it is essential for our mental and physical growth and affects us a lot in positive way. As when I took break for myself by opting to buy narrative essay which was pending at that time. I have realized that I have been destroying my mental health by taking so much academic stress. That is why we must think for our health before anything.
