Week 3 - Sacred Stillness of Winter

Even Jesus withdrew.


He rested. He stepped away. He honored the limits of His body and soul.


Winter invites us into that same holy hibernation, a season where less is not laziness, but wisdom. Rest is not indulgence. It is obedience.


You are allowed to need rest.You are allowed to take it.


May this week be marked by gentleness toward yourself and trust in the God who restores.


Guided Biblical Meditation


Scripture: Mark 6:31

  • Close your eyes and imagine Jesus inviting you to rest beside Him.

  • Breathe deeply and hear Him say: “Come away.”

  • Allow your body to soften with each breath.

  • Sit with this invitation for 2–3 minutes.

  • End by saying: “I receive Your rest.”


In rest,

Tanya
