Reflection

“Sometimes the most productive thing you can do is relax.”  ~Mark Black

Prayer

God of rest,

After six days of creating such beauty, you rested. You knew the importance of taking time to step away and be refreshed. Your Son, Jesus, did the same, often retreating to solitary places to be alone and rejuvenated. Our lives can become so busy that we sometimes lose our productivity by not taking time to relax. Guide us in understanding the importance of stepping away from work to relax and recharge. Through your example, may it be so. Amen.
