A Little Respite

Four days to go...i'm excited! And yet anxious. i read The Church at Brook Hill's blog today, interviewing their summer missionaries. One question asked was "What is your biggest fear for the summer?"

i've been home for a week and all i can do is lay around the house, sometimes not even mentally able to do something as simple as read a book! i'm tired all day, but all i do os sleep til noon. Why? Because i practically ran around like a chicken with my head cut off every day, trying to get everything done on time. Being home has shown me just how hard i pushed myself.

This week has brought about one of my biggest fears for the summer: not getting enough rest. When teams are in, i'm expected to be in leadership. "But what if i'm just plain tired?" "What if i just can't keep going?"

These thoughts swirl around in my head as Sunday draws nearer. i long to find that sweet rest in the LORD everyday. But when those days come along–like today–when i can't hardly even focus on God, how can i keep going?

This is definitely a concern of mine. Prayers for strength and opportunities to rest are much appreciated! Thank you to all those following me this summer and praying for Clarkston. Glory to God!
