Day 300: Psalm 115, Proverbs 14:34-36, Mark 6, Jeremiah 29-30

Go And Get Rest

We hear most people say that they are busy to the extend that they do not have time to rest or eat.  In Mark 6:31-32, we read an account where Jesus' disciples were busy that they did not even have time to eat. Jesus said to them, “Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while.” So they departed to a deserted place in the boat by themselves. Rest is CRUCIAL. Medically, it is proven that sleep and metabolism are controlled by the same area of the brain. Sleep releases hormones that control appetite. Researchers at the University of Chicago found that dieters who were well rested lost more fat. A study found that C-reactive protein, which is associated with heart attack risk, was higher in people who got six or fewer hours of sleep a night. In Exodus 20: 8-11, even God Himself rested after He completed His work in 6 days. Henceforth, with school holidays coming, plan some rest for your body and mind. Attend some spiritual retreat or church camps or send your children to VBS (Vacation Bible School). https://twitter.com/EstherOngHC
