We want to sleep to just have a break from our "thinking" but often it doesn't come except in small snatches. I've learned that I have to practice resting my mind for five or ten minutes. It does calm the heart, even if it's only temporary.

Rest Your Mind....
This is so applicable to those of us grieving. Our minds race with thoughts day and night....there's just a lot to think about when you lose a loved one. At first, I think we relive ever moment that we can and that includes the good and the bad. We have to make initial funeral plans and on it goes.

The one thing I am sure of is that you cannot calm your heart UNLESS you rest your mind. Praying is a great way to rest your mind while God calms your heart.
