Jesus really models rest and I feel like in his ministry, he really shows a good balance for all of us, but definitely moms of sacrifice and service, but also rest.

Just, you know, him going off and leaving and praying to the Father, taking a nap in a boat.

He didn't go and visit every single town, so that means he had to say no to some things.

You know, him embracing limitations because he was also fully human.

Okay, I've got a question for you as a mom.

Okay.

Do moms ever rest?

No.

How did you answer that so fast?

No, I'm just saying.

Are you talking about an oxymoron?

Well, moms and rest.

There's so many things that depends on what your definition of rest would be.

There's a lot, but my first instinct was we as moms, we just go, we do.

And I think there's an art of learning how to rest and it's hard.

Yeah, and I just know I'm looking at a mom, you said never rest.

In fact, the only way you rest is I get you in a car and remove you from the house.

You take me to the movies.

Yeah, I mean, it's like you will not even sit down in our house and we don't have kids there anymore.
