Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)
What is rest?
What is rejuvenation?
Definitions and possible ways to be refreshed are presented in this final chapter. Explore how rest and rejuvenation can be experienced in many different settings and why this aspect of "taking Sabbath" is vital for healthy living. God has designed all people to need rest and rejuvenation. Rest is needed daily.
In quiet, beauty, play, exercise, and even the act of grieving you can have rest. With the Holy Spirit and the Word of God and in prayer and spoken affirmations you can be renewed. For our physical bodies it is actually vital to havae continual water intake, so any time of rest and rejuvenation would include drinking water. Refreshment in Jesus our Lord offers God's spiritual breath. Techniques for physical relaxation are given.
Attitude and personal lifestyle choices affect our bodies. Each person's weight is dependent upon a multiplicity of causal factors. Health whether mental, physical, or spiritual, is a composite of these factors. Each chapter in "Transformed for Glory" acknowledges these factors and attempts to bring you, the reader, into deeper personal insight and foster whole-person health.
All patterns, even your habits of eating, can be changed. This is possible. And your health is definitely enhanced by the support of people who encourage and offer assistance, not shame and ridicule. We have the help of a Great and Glorious God: a God who empowers and sustains us on the journey. You have such a God: He is the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Come and begin experiencing rest and rejuvenation.
