Shelly's Modeling Agencies | Rest And Renew | Hot Topic

Shelly's Modeling Agencies hot topic will help you rest and renew. Take a cue from nature as you prepare mind, body and spirit for the year ahead. In anticipation of winter, many of God's creatures begin storing up what they'll need during the snowbound months, when they will find a cozy place to curl up and slide into sleep mode. These animals are yielding to instinct and to the ticking of nature's clock. At winter's end, they arise from their slumber rejuvenated and ready to roam the landscape once more. Of course, humans have neither the luxury nor the physiological capacity to sleep through an entire winter. Nevertheless, our own survival demands that we pause to restore ourselves when our minds, bodies and souls nudge us in that direction. To grow stronger, the human spirit needs a period of rest between workouts to repair itself.

In my modeling agencies I've witnessed what happens when people overdo it: The floor managers gets laryngitis from yelling too much. The supermom burns out. Some folks keep their eyes open by popping narcotics, then down a few cocktails to get to bed. Ripping and running to the point where we're not functioning as we should can lead to illness or injury, a chemical dependency, an accident, a pink slip, marital strife, a crisis with a neglected child. Eventually, our lives can spin so out of control that we are forced to put everything on pause.

God expects us to schedule periods of stillness in out lives, not just to recharge our being but so that we can devote time to honing our relationship with the Creator, the true source of our renewal. To meet the coming year, give yourself the quiet time you need to become mentally refreshed, physically revitalized and spiritually restored, knowing that during your period of rest, you will grow stronger than you were before.
