====Sit down and rest a while==== 

There never is a moment without its duty. If we are living near to Christ and following Him closely, we shall never be left in ignorance of what 

He wants us to do. 

If there is nothing — absolutely nothing — for us to do at any time, then we may be sure that the Master wants us to sit down a moment at His feet and rest. 

For He is not a hard Master, and, besides, rest is as needful in its time, as work. 

We need to rest in order to work; so we must not worry when there come moments which seem to have no task for our hands. 

The next thing, then, is to sit down and rest a while . 

"And He said to them: Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while." Mark 6:31
