WHOA! HALT!!
I need a time out!
My energy’s spent
And there’s no doubt!
I’m tired and burned out—
My brain is FRIED!!!
I need to recover,
Assess and decide!
Games often grant
A time to assess.
Perhaps review rules
Injuries or stress.
In everyday life,
When do we know?
When we’re in trouble
Is that how it goes???
There’s a time and a place
To take a step back.
Break our routine—
That’s NOT being slack!
Our body KNOWS
When it needs a break.
Access priorities
For your health’s sake!
God knows and cares–.
He’ll help you through.
A wilderness break
Does wonders for you!
Access priorities—
Jesus took time.–.
A wilderness break—
With God, the Devine!
So, my friend,
We all must access–
Do we just need a break???
Or a change from within?
