It simply means you need a little rest. Quiet the chatter of your mind. Nurture your body with nutrients and a break. After a short break, you will feel just as new again. You just need a rest!”

Thank you so much!! This is both an confirmation and answer to prayer. For so long I have looked at “having to rest” as failing. Just this week God has freed me from this perception. Bless you. I am linking your photo to my blog I am writing today.

Although I’m not adventurous enough to climb a mountain of that size your quote certainly is a good reminder for any challenges people face physically, emotionally or spiritually. As you experienced in your climb, these challenges are humbling and open a wider space for us to be aware of the love and care of God.
