A woman's path to sustained recovery

Though the process of recovery is never easy, some women seem to move through the journey with less pain than others. Why? What makes the difference? Here we will talk about how that happens for each of us. We will talk about how women heal in mutually empowering realtionships with themselves, with others and with God.

Rest

"How beautiful it is to do nothing, and then rest afterward." Spanish proverb.
This proverb was in our newspaper's comic strip and I smiled. In our very busy society we rarely give ourselves permission to "do nothing and rest afterwards." It is a concept difficult to even imagine. For most of us being busy equates with being important. Even retirees take delight in saying things like, "I'm so busy I don't know how I had time to work."

My prayer for you today is that you "do nothing and then rest afterward." In that rest thank God for the peace that He gives. The rest is His gift.

Blessings-Penny
