Rest And Rejuvenation When Faced With The Unexpected

I flew to the U.S. for the first time in two years. I’m an American ex-pat and have been desperate to see my extended family since the pandemic started.

But four days before Christmas, my husband tested positive for Covid. We switched from holiday cheer to isolation and quarantine.

It was my daughter’s first Christmas, and she spent it alone with me away from our family and her father. My husband spent the day alone watching trashy TV shows.

It was not ideal.

Liberty Forrest, Author recently wrote about rest and rejuvenation.

Unfortunately, everything isn’t going to be ideal all the time. But allowing for rest also means accepting things as they come.

As you think about your hopes and dreams for 2022, don’t forget some grace for when things don’t go according to plan.
