Rhonnie Scheuerman\u2019s\u00a0Inspiration Station For All <\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

In Need This morning during the Christmas Season<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Take Time to Rest and Sharpen<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"jesuschristmas006\"Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, he said to them, “Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.” Mark\u00a06:31<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

A competition was held between two men to see who could chop down the most trees in a single day. One man was older and more experienced, while the other was younger and less experienced. And that\u2019s where the difference showed up. The younger man spent eight hours chopping down trees, and at the end of the day he had a total of twenty-five. Believing the older man lacked stamina and youth, he sat down, fully confident he would win. Meanwhile the older man, who had taken a ten-minute break each hour, ended his day by chopping down forty trees. In shock the younger man asked, \u2018How is this possible, old man? I didn\u2019t stop. You stopped every hour for ten minutes and yet you chopped down almost twice as many trees as I did.\u2019 The older man replied, \u2018Every hour I sat down for ten minutes and did two things. First, I took time to rest and recharge my batteries. Second, I took time to sharpen my axe. Yes, you were working hard but you were working with a dull axe.\u2019 There\u2019s an important lesson here for you. In order to succeed at what God has called you to do in life, you must always do these two things: 1) Make time for rest and renewal. You cannot always be giving out; you must also stop and take in. That\u2019s where prayer and Bible reading come in: they restore what life depletes. 2) Stay sharp. When your axe is dull it requires more energy and produces fewer results. So take time to rest and sharpen.<\/p>\n

Prayer Heavenly Father, <\/strong><\/p>\n

Help me to take time to rest and sharpen \u2013 and not feel guilty about it! <\/strong><\/p>\n

In Jesus\u2019 Name, Amen<\/strong><\/p>\n
