Yesterday was a day off from teaching and meetings. I have to admit to losing a battle yesterday. I had plans but due to losing the battle, the plans did not happen. I got very little done.
What was the battle? Who was it with?
I lost the battle with my pillow.
I had set my alarm for 8am with intentions of getting some things done. But alas when the alarm went off, somehow it mysteriously was shut off and I did not awaken until 10am.
But I am okay with losing the battle. My body was telling me it needed more rest.
The day was not a complete waste. I did catch up with some bloggers. I did teach my Friday evening Life Group.
Today is Blogger Chat in the morning. In the afternoon I will visit woman battling cancer who is from a different state but now lives in my state. She is a member of my Life Group from church. In the evening, I will spend time with the family of my friend who died a month ago.
So the pillow may have won yesterday, but Jesus still blessed me with opportunities to encourage others and will bless me with more opportunities today.
Thank you for reading. God Bless.
But, hey, you are on fall break. Like you said, you needed the rest. I firmly believe the following: sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is take a nap! Blessings.
Yep fall break 🤗
Praying the Lord blesses your time ministering to your friends today.
Sometimes we just need more rest!
Yes we do 🤗
It sounds like you got much needed rest and God is going to really use you to encourage others with your upcoming events!! See you in blogger chat soon big bro!!
It was wonderful to see you little sister 🤗

Get the rest that you need. We can do so much more for God if we have proper rest and nutrition!

We have to listen to our bodies in order to refreshed mind, body, spirit. I always pray the Lord renews a right spirit within in me as I sleep at night. I have some major battles with my pillow since my breast cancer. Blessings for what God has placed in front of you today. For we no not what tomorrow holds, it is not promised. Grace be with you! 🙏🏻👍
Yes we do need to listen
You mean you let the pillow win the battle, come on man. (Smile)
The pillow overpowered me haha
When the body needs rest the alarm will shuts off myteriously. 🙂. Don’t feel guilty because you are doing great.
Thank you little sister
I always lose the battle with my pillow😂 especially when there is something that I really need to study I just doze off🤷♀️ I think I also need to think the positive side of it because like you said our body does need rest. Thank you for the reminder brother😊💙
Those pillows are so strong lol.
MANY ARE THE PLANS IN A PERSON’S HEART, BUT IT’S THE LORDS PURPOSE THAT PREVAILS!
🤗
Haha. Glad you got some much needed rest big brother. 😴
Thank you little sister. Love ❤️ you

I heard someone say once that our bodies are always communicating with us, we just need to learn how to listen. Good job listening, big brother 🙂
Thank you little sister. How are you?
Doing well. Thank you for asking 🙂 Hope you are well also!
