Refreshment
I have been enjoying sharing blessings as a part of A Dusty Frame’s Works of God Weekends. Giving Him the praise and glory for the work in my life is an eye-opening and heart-changing experience that I hope will continue.
I am so blessed this weekend. My husband and his parents are entertaining the kids for the weekend so that I could have some alone time and it is so incredibly refreshing. I love the quiet – no talking, no yelling, no instructions-repeated-one-hundred-times, no children’s movies played over and over, no constant rat race to be on my toes and a step ahead of them in everything…
Do not get me wrong…I love being a mom, but I believe rest and refreshment is necessary to renew ourselves physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. For me, my husband has blessed me incredibly by making it possible for me to have that time alone this weekend – to stop my own personal rat race and reflect, renew, and hopefully come out a better person for it.
Do you ever get time to yourself? To be quiet, rest, renew, reflect? To just spend time with Him, the Lover of your soul?
That sounds perfect. What a great opportunity!
Praying you will be blessed with your time with Him.
Enjoy!! You totally deserve and need that kind of quiet down time. Thinking about you!
That sounds so good:) I’ve been thinking that I need something like this, but then I’m ok too;)!
I hope you are very blessed by this time!
Thanks for participating.
Not since right before Abby was born. I really need to speak up about it but I always feel so guilty for asking for time to myself. After all, I’m not the only one that works and takes care of the house, and parents our kids. I just feel guilty asking for it while he doesn’t feel that way at all.
Enjoy your time with Jesus!
You have a wonderful husband for doing something like this. I’m so glad he is my brother. Truely one in a million.
Hope you had a relaxing time.
