I was feeling guilty the other day thinking about going away on sabbatical.  I thought how selfish to not be working, to not be with my family and then a friend gave me Wayne Cordeiro’s book “Leading on Empty.”  We all need to rest.  Too few of us even follow the biblical mandate for one day a week much less a sabbatical year or a monthly retreat day.  We think it’s too impractical—but then so is burn out, depression, divorce, and open heart surgery.  So I put some things in perspective and am now preparing my heart and my soul for renewal.  Maybe it’s time for a little impractical retreat in your life.
**I will be on sabbatical May-July.**
