My word for 2023 is “Ready!” Most mornings I add one thing to my list of whatever it is I am ready for. Some days I don’t add anything. Today is one of those days. I am not ready for anything. I just want to veg…
Do you have days like that? Do you let yourself just rest? Do you have that privilege?

Matthew 11
28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Some days we need to stop… andJust rest!
I’m gonna do that today. You gonna take some time to rest, too?
Jan, I try and set a “ready” goal…it keeps me motivated. My days are challenging me due to long nights. My goal was “publish!” Publish…create a newsletter (took me 3 days) and put it here on WP, all coupled with appts and household things. You know well, Jan. Ready, set,…live! And love!💛❤️💕
Yup, “always on the go” WAS my mantra… but not anymore. I have really heard God telling me, “Slow down. Select. Establish priorities. Don’t try to do everything.” So, I am ready, yes… but not for as many things per day as I used to be! I heard that “Rest” message – and I have taken it to heart. How about you?
