Time to be still

It's never easy for me to just rest. Its not that I don't understand that I need to, its just that life is so exciting, so full of wonders to be experienced that just sitting around doing nothing seems like a huge waste of time to me. I put up our tree yesterday, and on Monday I ran errands and now I am paying the price. This pleurisy thing is back with a vengeance. I hurt more today than I did in the beginning of all this. So now I have no choice but to rest and understand that this is a time for me to listen, to be still, to hear the small still voice that seems to be trying to get my attention.
Maybe if you have a moment you wouldn't mind saying a little prayer for me.
Its a cold morning here and I so wish I was out walking in the wintery air !
