Hi friends,

Welcome to the Gift of Sacred Rest,

Seasons.

We're continuing our journey into the sacred stillness of winter.

And today,

We embrace nesting with God and creating spaces that hold you.

Winter draws us inward,

Not only into our homes,

But into God's presence.

God longs to be our dwelling place,

A refuge,

A safe home for the weary soul.

As you rest in this season,

Consider how your physical and spiritual spaces can support rest.

A quiet corner,

Soft light,

Scripture nearby,

These are not luxuries,

They're invitations.

So today,

May your spaces become sanctuaries.

As we embrace rest and nesting with God,

Let's reflect on Psalm 90,

Verse 1.

Lord,

You have been our dwelling place throughout all generations.

Lord,

You have been our dwelling place throughout all generations.

Now sit in a quiet space and just notice your surroundings.

Breathe slowly in your natural rhythm and imagine God surrounding you.

Repeat softly,

Lord,

You are my dwelling place.

Lord,

You are my dwelling place.

Lord,

You are my dwelling place.

Allow yourself to feel safe,

Supported,

And at rest.

And sit in the silence of the Lord's embrace for just a moment.

Thank you for spending your sacred time with me today.

In all you do,

Do it in love and be well.
