Can you just tell me how to make rest work? This is the daily service vloggas in Anthony Angina. I just had a session the other night. How to chill amidst the trials and the thrill of life.
Hair down in a time of lockdown. Well, let's sum it up. Through the word recreate. Okay?
Number one. How to make rest happen. How to make it work in our lives today. Rest in practical terms.
Not just the concept, right? Not a vague idea. But practical terms. Rest in practical terms.
Stop is a form of rest. Align with people for better execution. Align first. Step back.
Listen. Stop. Thank. Right.
And remember. Intercede. Better than intervention. Enjoy.
And rest. Stop. Align. Listen.
Thank. Intercede. Enjoy. And rest.
That makes you saltier. Not bland. Number two. Exercise.
Rest exhausting. Meeting your demands will be. Number three. Connect with men and women of peace.
You are the average, right? Of the five people closest to you. Or your mentors. Connect with men and women of peace.
Which means those who have gone before you. And those who are doing it right. Number four. Rely on internal rest and peace.
Regardless of external conditions. It's not what happens to you. Dr. John Maxwell keeps reminding us.
It's what happens in you. And you know the people you look up to guys. Come on. The way they respond in times of crisis.
Those who in the valley of the shadow of death still fear no evil. And actually arise from it victorious. If God is within you. All the more you can be assured of rest.
Exodus 3314. My presence will go with you and I will give you rest. So number four is to rely on internal rest and peace regardless of external conditions. Number five.
Embrace the Sabbath. Oh Anthony. I'm not a Christian. Okay.
Same concept every seven days, seven years. See rest and what? Recreation. Rest and recreation.
Embrace the Sabbath. Times of rest. Again. Exodus 28 where he talks about making the Sabbath day holy.
That is the longest written commandment meaning the time God gave it also. Asks us to give time to actually make it happen. Then God blessed the seventh day. Right.
You know this and made it holy because on it he rested. From all the work of creating that he had done. By the way the Sabbath was made for man. Not man for the Sabbath which means when you rest it is to your benefit that you do so.
Number six. Allow rest to become a habit. Arrest that can't be tested. Can't be trusted.
You don't change work or rest habits like you change your clothes. Okay. You change your habits. I change my habits more like how we build amazing abs which I'm still working on.
One day. One opportunity. One challenge. One session at a time.
Take the time to center and find your rest at different times of day or a busy week as a matter of habit. Rest isn't just a moment of chilling. It's a state of being. And finally number seven.
Engage with. Love. I love these words of Teresa of Abulah. Love turns work into rest.
Number one. Rest. Number two. Exercise.
Number three. Connect. Number four. Aligner.
Peace. Right. Number five. Embrace the Sabbath.
Allow rest to become a habit. Number seven. Engage with love. Allow a quiet place.
And rest. And recreate.
