Wow! What am I doing? Starting another blog? How restful is that??? LOL! I know, I am not one who finds rest easily, but I'm learning. After years and years of running on empty, I'm nearly there. I am tired, weary and drained. Have you ever felt that way? I have this desire to fill up. It's kind of like when you're parched... so thirsty you can't stand it! You desire refreshment! That's how I have been feeling. I need to be refreshed! I need rest. True Rest!
When I say True Rest, I'm not talking about a nap. I mean that I need to learn to rest in the Lord. Matthew 11:29 says, Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Boy, do I need that. I get too busy. Busy with life, busy with blogging, busy with church, busy with kids and home and family and everything else. I sometimes forget what it's like to rest. To truly rest, in Jesus.
If you're one of my readers on The Frugal Family, this blog will be very different. I'll post occasionally, no need to make myself tired, right? I plan to post when I feel God has laid something on my heart to share or when I've read a great passage of Scripture I want you to hear.
I hope you all enjoy this blog. I am looking forward to sharing the True Rest with you that comes from Jesus!
