Self-Care: Working Hard and Resting Well

Self-care: our culture glorifies it, and many in the church shun it. What are believers to think? Is self-care contrary to a self-giving life or is there a way to practice it in a way that honors God? As followers, we are to work hard and with excellence in all things. Yet, we know God made us with finite frames needing regular rest. We actually need to practice self-care if we want to love and serve God and others well! This can feel tricky, but God’s Word can help us balance working hard and resting well.   Connect with us: www.dailygracepodcast.com www.thedailygraceco.com https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/ https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/   Questions?
