A Personal Testimony Rest. At this point the word seemed absurd. A task, deadline, or duty constantly wrestled for her attention. The to-do list was infinite, and sleep was only on there because darkness demanded it. The sun would rise and the list would reappear with force, setting her body and mind into motion. In the

my three days of prayer, solitude, and silence with God.
I don’t know how to rest. I know it seems a bit ridiculous, but it’s the truth. I’m a type-A, get things done, task-oriented person. Sitting still is hard for me.

He reminds me it’s not always a good thing to
