Rest
This page brings together all the resources I have created about the importance of rest.
Rest has become an essential part of my life and ministry and I hope that by modelling that I can encourage other people to rest as a blessing from God.
I will start by sharing the poems, prayers and paintings I have created about Rest over the last few years. Below these you can find a list of articles, videos, interviews, podcasts, books and resources I have created about Rest.
Stillness in my heart
Finding peace amidst chaos
Mind, body, soul
Quiet weighs heavy
Too much space for thinking
Prayer lifts the weight
Make space for prayer
Gliding on wings of the doves
Peace descends lightly
Jesus valued rest
Took time away in prayer
Let's rest with Jesus
Discovering truth
Think of me: Human being
Not human doing
Surprisingly centered
In the wreckage of life
Love, joy, peace and hope
…
Resting gently on the lonely road,
Each breath a whisper of stillness,
Silhouettes of dreams dance in twilight,
Time pauses as shadows embrace solitude.

No escape allowed
Rest beyond rest required
Til synapses calm
Lean on me and rest
No need to constantly rush
Life is a journey
Archway beckoning
What lies beyond that threshold
Investigation
Angels surround us
Protecting and inspiring
Existential love
Love flourishes
Within the quiet places
Colouring the dark
Flooded by rainbows
Every body accepted
Celebrating love
Loving in colour
Myriad effervescence
Living and learning
