A Focused Mind


As my 10K run approaches, I have to get my mind focused on the task that is before me. I have been super busy this week with a cold on top of it all. I need to take this evening to relax and focus my mind and body for tomorrow.

I think as our walk with Christ goes we get super busy with life and sometimes get spiritually & physically exhausted. The interesting part is that sometimes we are super busy with good things like volunteering @ church or playing on a worship team or community outreach, etc...... We need to make sure we take time for a sabbath. My pastor said this Sunday that "you can do more in 6 days with a Sabbath than 7 days without". Take a day to do something that feeds your spirit. Take a hike or go to the park or just chill @ home in your pajamas or run a 10K. The interesting thing is when I run, it's not the most fun thing to do but I can totally check out of reality. Gives me time to focus on my life and thank God for all He has done for me.

My challenge is that you take some time for a Sabbath!!

Grace & Peace
Ben
