Who could resist, right?
Well, here’s the good news! You’ve already received your standing invite to this kind of delight!
The bad news? Many, many of us ignore it completely.
Why?
We’re just too busy.
John Mark Comer, in his book The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry, says, We get tired and worn out; our immune systems start to falter, miss a step. Another cold. It’s like our nervous systems are trying to get our attention.
Yet we push on. Until, inevitably, we crash. Something in our minds or bodies gives out, and we end up flat on our backs.
It happened to him. And I’m guessing he’s not the only one who’s needed a big ol’ break in the form of Sabbath. If you, too feel the need for time to feed your soul, this episode will offer some ways to do that—even in the form of a “mini-Sabbath.” Listen in if you need some rejuvenation of your body and soul.
