And on the 7th day

One lesson that I'm constantly refusing to learn is one of needing rest. My body can handle most any kind of pressure, and I like to test my limits on a regular basis. Even now, when I'm not hitting walls on a regular basis, I find myself pushing my limits at work to the point where I am burning the candle at both ends.

Satan creeps into my life much more regularly at times when I do not give myself ample time for rest. I find myself doubting who I am and what I'm doing. I feel a disconnect between people I work with and for. In general, I am not overly pleasant to be around. The truth is, the lesson of rest is one of the biggest lessons I'll ever have to learn, personally.

Yesterday was not a good day for me, and I had a feeling I was in dire need of some rest. Well, I got that rest last night, and today, I realize that most of what I was feeling yesterday was something fabricated inside my own tired mind.

So I speak to myself when I say, "Get thee behind me, Satan." For at times like that, I am my own worst enemy.

Peace, Love, and Rest,

Bobby
