#write31days: Day 21 – Give

You ever have those seasons where you give everything you’ve got but it just doesn’t seem enough still?

I do, too.

I know it’s better to give than to receive but that doesn’t mean we don’t need to receive. It’s just a reminder to make sure that we’re not only receiving. So make sure you’re taking care of yourself just as much as you’re giving of yourself. Take time for you. It’s not selfish. It’s necessary. You can’t give what you don’t have. So fill yourself up, find “downtime”, get some rest and refuel so that you can continue to give to those around you.
