I have this bad habit of saying”Yes” all the time. I have noticed, as of late, that I really haven’t given myself time to just “Be”. Sunday at Church for four hours. Tuesday night,choir practice for three hours. Thursday night,Community group for 2-2and1/2 hours. I fill the other nights with the stuff I can’t do on those afore mentioned nights. I work monday through Friday anywhere from 28-45 hours depending on the week. I am trying to remodel my office in the middle of all this. Today I spent the day with my daughter who had her wisdonm teeth out and “needed” mommy. Next weekend I head to Wilmington to help my ailing younger sister. I have done three weddings and three prom make-ups and hairs in the last month. Filling in the spare moments is bill paying, house cleaning and cooking. I’m tired,pooped,exhausted. I’ve gained weight from too much rush eating. Not happy with the added pounds, though some friends say I look real good right now. I don’t like the poochy stomach and the fact I can’t get my tooshy in my jeans!!! I’ve decided that June is going to be the month I say “No”, so that I can refuel myself. Say a little pray for me. I need to take some time out and get centered. Thank you, God for all You have given me. My prayer is to rest in You for my spiritual peace and find quiet time for my physical peace.

Very wise decision sister Sara.
We all need time to rest in Him.
“Come to Me, all who are weary and I will give you rest.”
Saying NO can be very freeing.
love you
