This past few weeks, I have learned to hold onto God's love for me in a way that is not new, just refreshing. Dealing with illness can be a struggle for everyone. It comes when least expected nor wanted. It interferes with well laid out plans. Illness wears the body and soul down to the point of needing God to provide the strength and comfort that our physical body needs.
REST!
Rest is vital to regain strength, not only in our bodies, but our souls as well. Sleeping gives us the opportunity to find such rest.
Yet I learned these past few weeks, that resting and being refreshed is something that we take for granted until it is all that we can do to get stronger.
Let's remember that God is the giver of all things, even the necessary rest and refreshment that we so desperately need without knowing it, until we have a hard time even crawling out of our bed to get a glass of water.
Let us be thankful to God, that no matter what we face, we face all circumstance with you; that you never leave us, that you are always present with us, even in the comforts of our warm and soft bed.
