Goodnight my angel, time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
~Billy Joel
I'm official on medical leave of absence. Per my last blog post, you know I was diagnosed with adrenal fatigue back in December. Unfortunately, six months later, my levels have not improved. My doctor has ordered four weeks of rest. Tough gig (smile).
Actually, it's going to be ... challenging. I recognize this is an opportunity to figure out why I don't rest. I sleep but don't rest. I succeed at work but don't rest. I love my friends and family but don't rest in them. So, that's the task - to figure out how to rest. In who I am not in what I do. In what I have accomplished not all that remains to do. In who (and Who) loves me instead of the fear of being left alone.
I'm going to use this blog as a way to update you all on what follows. The first week or two especially I'll have limited contact with anyone while I sleep (hopefully rest) and spend quiet time - with myself and Jesus.
What a gift this time is!
Please email (lowry.maria@gmail.com) and pray.
Maria
