Get some rest!

One of the hardest things to do is "take a break" without feeling guilty and selfish; or worse, feeling like a failure because everything on your "to do" list didn't get done. Here's a news flash: there will always be more to do!
We claw our way to success then discover we don't like the pressures that go with it. So what should we do? Learn to walk away! Jesus did. "... because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, he said to them, 'Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.' So they went away by themselves in a boat to a solitary place" (Mk 6:30-32 NIV).
Take time for the people who matter. All the success in the world won't compensat for the joy and treasure of your family and loved ones!
