kikikaria, How well I am finding out more and more about proper rest. especially of late. I have been kept up for nights now with excruitating migraines for weeks on end and not getting the proper rest. Two weeks ago God touched me and I have slept all night now without one migraine disturbance. PRAISE GOD!!! That will be my next Post.

Good ol' menopause, been there done that. Ever want to crawl inside the freezer yet just to cool down? ;{

I remember my neurologist telling me that if I start having the Dr. Jeckel and My Hyde syndrome then that meant that the brain tumor was growing and putting pressure on the left frontal lobe and I would have to have surgery. HA! HA! I told him we couldn't blame it on the tumor because Good ol' menopause syndrome already had a handle on that note. LOL!

Catherine, What you say is truth both in the natural and the spiritual. In the natural we become an easy target for disease and sickness to take ahold of us because like you say, we are physically depleted and we are unable to fight off what is attacking us.

Great post, Jolene. How important it is to get the proper rest. Now what do you do when you're going through menopause and the hot flashes keep you up? I find that Benadryl sometimes helps. What a blessing to be able to sleep well. You don't appreciate something until it's taken away from you. The best rest is the Holy Ghost! May God bless you with a sweet repose!

Karen, Your comment is SO TRUE! Just like we need to take care of our spiritual rest we need to likewise take care of our physical rest as well. Both are equally important. I believe they go hand in hand. Searching this out has really given me "Food For Thought" LOL!
Love you and your comments. God Bless!

Our true resting place is in the Lord. However, we must use the wisdom He has given us to protect our physical being. Good post.
