📖 He (Jesus) said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a little while”—for there were many [people who were continually] coming and going, and they could not even find time to eat. —Mark 6:31 AMP
Have you found yourself in the same position? Have you been so busy that you forgot to eat? The disciples were out doing the Lord’s work. They went out and preached that men should repent. They were casting out many demons, anointing with oil many who were sick, and healing them. They were doing what Jesus had sent them out to do. Even though they were doing those wonderful things, they still needed to get away and rest for a little while. They were still human. We have to realize and understand the same thing. We are human and we need rest. We need to take breaks periodically. Rest is good for the body, and it is good for the mind. We must endeavor to take the time to rest. If it was important for the disciples, it is no less important for us.
