photo a day, ten. {rest}
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
-Matthew 11:28-30
I love Saturdays. Especially the ones with no agenda, no obligations. I love not rushing my little men out the door and having all my people home. Even though we still rise pretty early - mainly just out of habit and well, baby cries - I love being able to rest. Resting from weekly responsibilities and duties, physically resting, and having intentional family time. I love the way The Message paraphrases it - Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly. Doesn't that sound so refreshing? God, help me to learn to walk with you and live more freely.
