Send us Fan MailWhat if the exhaustion you feel at the end of every week is an invitation to live differently?You’ve landed at the third mini episode in my Habits Series. In this one, I’m talking about Sabbath rest, not because we need another rule to follow but because of the inherent value of working from rest rather than for it. For years, I treated rest as a burden, something I gave in to after pushing myself too hard. But a simple biblical insight shared by a friend shifted everything for me and helped me see rest as preparation, not recovery. In this episode, I share that story, explore the heart behind Sabbath, and walk you through what intentional, restorative rest looks like in my own life.If you’re feeling worn down, constantly on, or quietly wondering how long you can keep going like this, I want you to listen. This conversation may help you reconnect with God in a gentler way, care for your soul more honestly, and build rhythms that can sustain you for the road ahead of dreaming with God.Get the Habit Tracker at merrittonsa.com/habitsNEXT STEPS:Connect with Merritt: Website || Instagram || Book a CallLeave a Review: Apple Podcasts/iTunesSubscribe: on Apple Podcasts * on AndroidJoin the Dream Believers communityMORE ABOUT THE DEVOTED DREAMERS PODCAST:Produced by Jonathan R.
