Take a Break
“In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength….”—Isaiah 30:15 (NIV)
When you are on vacation, it can be hard to downshift from work and truly enjoy your time away. Recognize the importance of taking a break to replenish your mind, body and spirit. Make a point to relax and enjoy every moment.
Lord, help me draw nearer to my loved ones—to get lost in the beauty of the moment, to be forgiving when things are not perfect and to appreciate my many blessings.
