Unwind, Relax and Rewind

For me there's something special about Sunday night, my downtime before plunging into another week of work. It provides a moment of peace, a chance to sit back and relax, play some jazz and breathe.

Before I get caught up in the coming week's obligations, regulations and preoccupations, I typically spend time in my "moment." It helps me calm my mind and heart. It also gives me time to clear out the mental and emotional junk from the week, especially the daily irritations that grate on nerves like nails on a chalkboard.

Sunday nite downtime helps me unwind and relax so I can rewind to meet the unknowns that wait for me on Monday. I expect the Lord to ensure my success, for I am more than a conqueror through Him who loved me (Romans 8:37). And when I trust Him fully, I don't just experience peace in the moment; the peace travels with me wherever I go. When I lay my questions and doubts aside, the peace flows.

Here's to extending that Sunday nite vibe through the week.
