I love to visit Sue’s blog Sue’s News, Views ‘n Muse. She has a wonderful writing style that flows. Sue is a huge fan of spending time with family. The posts that she shares about her family as some of my favorite. I met Sue via Mrs. Matlock’s Alphabe Thursday. She is regular on the hop. I am so blessed to stop by to visit on Thursdays as well as other days of the week.
Thanks to our good friend JDaniel4’s Mom for inviting me to guest post. This blog is always a delightful place to visit, and I am excited to be a part of it today. I especially like the idea of pausing life for a moment, and though I’m not always good at it, I’m a lot better than I used to be!
our own when necessary is a meaningful gift, one that every mother willingly makes. But the remaining whole is important too, and the trickle-down effects of a mother’s good self-care benefit the entire family. Christ was the most selfless Servant imaginable, yet even He knew when the time had come to withdraw and nurture himself, particularly when demands upon Him were heavy: “…and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities. And he withdrew himself unto the wilderness, and prayed” (Luke 5-15:16). We all need those moments of solitude sometimes, and we need to make time for them, giving ourselves permission to withdraw into our wilderness, too.
