This week we reframed Hebrews 4:11, showing that “strive” doesn’t mean working harder, but being attentive and intentional so we don’t drift from the rest already ours in Christ. We also talked about why returning to rest or our awareness of union with God, can feel difficult. Our nervous system can default into threat mode, emotions may be surfacing, or we’re trying to “perform” rest. Through breath, grounding touch, and gentle awareness, we signal safety and allow the soul to soften. Rest isn’t something we earn; it’s something we remember. When we quiet ourselves like a child resting with its mother, we rediscover our true home in God’s love.
