Restedness, Chaos, and Equilibrium

I think a that I have no lack of opportunity, but I do have a lack of motivation.  or restedness.  or sheets, as I like to call it.  They don't have blank material to work with.  Some people may blame grit, saying that the grit is the opposite of blankness, the antithesis, to say.  However, the grit helps the sheet available to be separated into chunks and then into sections and then into lines and shapes.  I think of grit as helping you work with the blank material. Traction on a rock wall with a cliff face with several hundred feet between you and the canyon floor. 

Not that I've ever been really rock climbing.  Once in high school, the rock gym.  Much too fat now.  If I fell, I might kill someone. 

Soreness....leads to strength.  Do I even want to be strong?  Complications. 

Deadness leads to numbness, so try

Everytime I come upon this problem.  What is to rest?  God rested when he still had man to save on the cross. But it was enough because He had set other things in motion.  He had created man.   He knew Jesus would save man and He rested because of the things He had created. 

Resting is to cease from doing.  All our trying may be making chaos, we must limit ourselves to achieve real rest.  Even better, have someone else limit us.  If we do not submit to these limitations, we will become sick or worse.  Every move will be a painful one.   We will be stuck in the chaos without any real equilibrium.
