Rest and Be Thankful Part 2

Good morning my blogging friends.

Thanks to you who left a comment and let me know what you are thankful for! My friend Mary from Across the Pond had a great idea and I hope she doesn't mind me sharing it with you. Every day she is going to write down one thing that she's thankful for and put them all in a jar. At the end of the year she'll read them all. I think that is a wonderful idea and I am going to do it too!

Today I was thinking about REST. All of need to rest. Even God rested on the seventh day after he had created the earth. So if even God Almighty needs rest how much more do we mere mortals need it! What do you do when you want to relax and rest?

Do you make yourself a cup of tea and curl up with a good book? Do you pour yourself a nice glass of wine and put on some favorite relaxing music and just enjoy being still and quiet?
Perhaps you pick up your bible and read some of your favorite verses, like "Come unto me all you who are heavy laden and I will give you rest"
Maybe you just curl up on the couch under your favorite old quilt or throw and have a nap.
Whatever is your way of relaxing and having a rest don't forget to do it. No matter how busy you are you'll be better off if you take time to rest. Oh and don't forget to be thankful too!
See you tomorrow.
