For todays Scattered thoughts I wanted to talk about rest. Not just the “lounge in front to the TV while watching a great movie”. I’m talking complete/almost complete RESToration. When I think about it seems unattainable, almost ridiculous notion that I could be rested. Now in college I would sleep for days or at least all day and it was great but thats not rest. I could do nothing all weekend and be joyous for just BEING home, but thats not rest.
Well what is rest then? How do I achieve this goal of what seems to be proper self-managment? Can’t manage time because it is constant and infinite.
I think somewhere I draw true rest is in spending some ‘Q’ Time with the big man. I notice that when I am not making room for that communion that everything else seems to wear on me so much more. I also find that when I participate in authentic worship I feel that same connectedness.
Matthew 11:28-30
