A time to rest


by Rachel Held Evans Read Distraction Free

Dan and I are taking a few days off to enjoy this beautiful fall weather with each other and with our family. I knew I needed a little break from the computer when we lost our internet connection for about 48-hours last week and I went into complete panic mode. (Tip: When you find yourself saying, “But my Twitter followers will think I’m dead!” it’s time for a break.)

Rest is a good thing. I don’t need to post a bunch of Bible verses or quotes to remind you of its benefits. And yet, I still feel a twinge of guilt whenever I give myself some time off. Thankfully, the guilt usually melts away if there is sun or sand or the smell of a campfire involved.

What do you like to do when you need to recharge? Do you have a favorite place to get away?(The picture above is from one of mine!)
