5 Good Reasons to Break Away
Hello there, friends! I am currently on break. I plan on reading a few good books and staying in my pajamas as much as possible. I refuse to paint my face, iron out wrinkles, or slave over the stove.
My hair is in a permanent pony tail, and my sun glasses are near by. I have no idea where I put my monthly bills or bank statements. I left them behind with the dust bunnies.
I packed my comfy pillow, my favorite pen, and a blank notebook.
I will eat plenty of watermelon and drink tall glasses of iced tea with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
As the waves crash into the shore, I will marvel at the majestic beauty of God’s creation.
Next week, I will address the laundry. Maybe.
For now, I am off duty.
I do have a few things on my to-do list this week, and I wanted to share them with you today. If you are a people pleaser and busy body, I hope I haven’t scared you off from reading any further.
5 Good Reasons to Break Away
To Pray
Lift up your heart to heaven and share your secrets with Jesus.
“…but Jesus often slipped away to be alone so he could pray.” (Luke 5:16, NCV)
To Ponder
Listen for His voice in the quiet and ask Him to light your path.
“My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings…Do not turn to the right or the left; Remove your foot from evil.” (Proverbs 4:20 & 27, NKJV)
To Praise
Unplug from the noisy world an plug into worship. Rehearse God’s goodness and grace.
“Let all that I am praise the Lord; with my whole heart, I will praise His holy name. Let all that I am praise the Lord; may I never forget the good things He does for me.” (Psalm 103:1-2, NLT)
To Purify
Refresh your spirit as you slow down and rest at His feet.
“Then Jesus said, ‘Let’s go off by ourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile…’ ”
To Prepare
Catch a glimpse of the greater things your God has planned. Set a few goals to stretch your faith.
“My heart has heard you say, ‘Come and talk with me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’…Teach me how to live, O Lord, Lead me along the right path…” (Psalm 27:8 & 11, NLT)
Commune with Christ in the quiet, and your break away might just lead to a break through.
