Her husband decided God was telling him to not participate in the Drama Ministry we had. When he let me know, I asked him how long he would be out. His plan was to be away from church things until the first of the following year. He made the right choice. Her recovery was long and arduous, lasting over a year.Do as the Lord leads you to do.quietspirithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06086016141181470311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633687387688783587.post-51433227137826040352017-01-12T11:27:54.376-05:002017-01-12T11:27:54.376-05:00Karen: Whenever I get involved in a large project,...Karen: Whenever I get involved in a large project, I try to set a personal deadline before the actual deadline so I can rest a bit before the event. I experienced frustration with this in one group because the head of the ministry said that there were always 'last minute'things to finalize. I still prefer to have a time of rest for myself in anything I do.quietspirithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06086016141181470311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633687387688783587.post-4169039432553115702017-01-11T19:57:56.849-05:002017-01-11T19:57:56.849-05:00This is supposed to be my year for "Sabbath R...This is supposed to be my year for "Sabbath Rest"...apparently something that God knows I need...and I am still not sure exactly what or how I am doing this...but little by little I am seeing Him bring it to pass. I am His servant, and I am trying to follow His commands...even to just REST. Thank you for this interesting study about the Sabbath year. Apparently this is where I am today.Pamela M.

Working on that this year, as well as sowing more scripture and quiet time.

It is always interesting to get to the bottom of what bothers us.I have found that if I complain about anything, I later find I may have been part of the initial cause, Hence, your comment is one that carries weight.quietspirithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06086016141181470311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3633687387688783587.post-43103551804289080902017-01-11T12:42:39.127-05:002017-01-11T12:42:39.127-05:00Hi Cecelia!

God always knows what's best for us, and we have to see his commands in that light. He only wants good for me, and for all his children. <br />Wishing you rest and refreshment this January,<br />CeilCeilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06293917798735764739noreply@blogger.com
