Relax, it's ok. |
According to dictionary.com, rejuvenate means to restore to a former state; make fresh or new again.
Sometimes that's what we need in order to feel alive again. Sometimes we simply need a make-over and a do-over. There's nothing wrong with that. There's nothing wrong with going on a vacation or taking a break from the things that add stress to our lives. I'm talking about those things that are sometimes beyond our control. It may be a job situation that God has not released us from yet, but it causes pressure in our lives. Or perhaps a school or business endeavor that we are committed to and that would be catastrophic to get out of. There are simply some things in life that we may not want to do, but we just have to do, at least for a certain amount of time.
That's life.
But here's the good news: it's ok to treat ourselves to the things that rejuvenate us to make us feel brand new again. We should do more of that. In fact, I need to do more of it myself. I need to sit out on a beach somewhere, stare at the ocean and that's it. I've never really done that before and I think it's time.
Anyway, it's really ok to take a break. Nobody's perfect, but God, so this may be a great time to slow down and remove ourselves from a certain situation even if it's temporary. We'll be glad we did it and it just may be the best thing for our souls right now.“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest (Matthew 11:28).
God knows.
