Transcript
- 0:08Speaker 1: Life Audio. From the Salvation Army, welcome to Heartbeat.
- 0:19Speaker 2: I think especially if you're a parent of young kids,
- 0:21Speaker 2: you might feel guilty anytime you take a moment for yourself.
- 0:24Speaker 2: The dishes aren't done, the laundry is waiting, there's another
- 0:28Speaker 2: snack to make, another mess to clean up. So when
- 0:31Speaker 2: you finally get a quiet moment, you think, I should
- 0:34Speaker 2: probably be doing something. But rest isn't laziness. Even Jesus
- 0:41Speaker 2: stepped away from the crowds to be alone and pray.
- 0:45Speaker 2: He understood that you can't pour endlessly without being refilled.
- 0:49Speaker 2: Taking a moment to breathe doesn't mean you love your
- 0:51Speaker 2: family any less. It might actually help you love them better.
- 0:56Speaker 2: So give yourself permission to rest.
