249. The Last One (for now)

Who needs rest from creating? In the beginning, God didn't just rest from work but He rested from creating. After burn out, Lisa-Jo and Christie wrap their arms around us and give us grace to pause. Whether you're entering a season of creation or needing a break from creating we can all relate. Sometimes a season calls for a stop. for a pause. for less. You might not need anything new but need to revisit and savor what you already have. "Maybe I don't need something new. Maybe what I need is already here and I need to slow down and savor it." - Christie Purifoy Do we lose momentum in our life if we rest? Feeling obliged to keep going but you want to stop? Which alternative to saying " I Did Nothing " (thanks to Chalkboard Mag) resonates with you? God is telling Christie and Lisa-Jo to pause.
