Your world is so soothing. As I sit here in the shade of a tree with birds chirping around me, I consider how perfectly you made this world. It perfectly protects and provides. Here on an Ohio spring day it seems so calming. That's how vacations should be! Here it is the third day and I am completely at rest. That was quick!
I had been contemplating why you allow for rest. Daddy, you rested after creation and you created eternal rest for us, so I know you are committed to rest: a place where strife is reduced and peace reigns.
I have to admit, I was feeling guilty about going on this vacation at first. Almost like I "shouldn't" be leaving the demands of my workplace behind. This speaks a warning to me: I can easily get to thinking I am way too important! You, Daddy, are the important one. You can use anyone to do your work. You just use me when I make myself available, but I am not critical to the accomplishment of your ways.
Thanks for the relief!
Love, Gina
