Breakthrough Fast 2011 - Day 4 "Time to Recharge the Batteries"

I’m tired tonight. I’m tired of thinking. I’m tired of planning. I’m tired of working. I’m tired of talking. I admit. I am a victim of the “work-work cycle” and the pursuit of excellence syndrome. But in my mediation tonight, the Word reminded me that Jesus knew the importance of rest. “The apostles gathered around Jesus and told him all that they had done and taught. He said to them, “Come away to a deserted place all by yourselves and rest awhile.” (Mark 6:30) Jesus understood the importance of recharging the batteries and seeking moments of quietness to revive, reconnect and to restore the mind, the spirit and the body. What are you doing to recharge your batteries? What are you doing during this period of fasting and prayer to renew your spirits and to revive your dreams.

I’m not sure about you. But I’m going to bed. With some rest, I will be a better husband, a better father, a better brother, a better friend and a better boss.

4 Days of Fasting and 17 more to go!
