hello again. a little birdie told me yall have enjoyed my prose yes? i have enjoyed writing these spontaneous little blurbs. if you haven't heard all of these captions are written right before i post them so no editing besides spelling and grammar goes into it. you get my real raw authentic and uncut feelings.

another fact about me:
i'm always busy. ALWAYS. most days i work myself into a migraine. and that my friends is why headache medicine is ya girls bestfriend.

yesterday i had a talk with God. a talk meaning me crying yelling and snot bubbles floating around and all that gross immature stuff. i was highly strung and tired and emotional and frustrated and angry. and then i saw a post about rest. and i didn't know it but God was speaking to me. i felt it tugging on my heart but wanted to ignore it but i woke up and determined i would rest today. this may seem really normal for other people but this is a new thing for me. ask my friends. they always complain that i'm too busy. that i'm doing too much.

so over the next couple of weeks i feel that the Lord is challenging me. to make rest my lifestyle and not hustle. to consecrate, honor, and set apart sundays as my sabbath-my day of true rest not halfway rest all the way. to take this time to abide and rest in Him. i'm not sure what that will look like but i'm sure that i will check back in-in a few weeks with some updates. i'm expecting a major change in my life. so stay tuned.

i also encourage you all to do the same. every sunday for the next four weeks i want you all to rest in Jesus. truly rest not 50% not 25% and not 99.9% all the way in. and i guarantee that God will do something in your life.

few scriptures for you:

Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!
Psalms 46:10

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness...
Genesis 1:26a

And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.
Genesis 2:2-3
