Rest is the keyword this afternoon. Heeding our body's call to rest and pray!

Dear Family of Love,

I hope everyone had a wonderful Day of Sabbath rest and Good Shepherd Sunday. Today I gave my prayer walking legs a rest because they needed them. Our bodies tell us many things in languages that we all need to learn and pay attention to. So my legs told me to rest. So I'm resting and heeding their calls to do this. I hope all of you took time for resting, relaxing, and renewal this weekend.  God wants us to rest, relax, and renew too. It comforts God to know that we are being mindful and care for the protective layer of our souls. Tonight I'm suggesting that we all get rest by doing the curly q virtual labyrinth and have prayers directed towards rest.
