Have you ever arrived at a place in your life where you are so worn out that you have literally nothing left to give…it doesn’t matter how hard you try….no…there’s just no energy left…
Today I have arrived at that destination
So I am going to be very wise & kind to myself by savoring a lovely hot cup of caramelized orange tea with some fruit chips & put my feet up to rest, refresh & restore….while you have fun…click or tap on any of the following colored titles to be transported to a place where you can join me in a delightful time of tea & reflection…
- Dreams….
- Mending brokenness…
- Penang, Pearl of the Orient…
- Digging for treasure…
- French tea time…
- Seasons & generations…
You see when we come to that place of complete exhaustion whether physically, spiritually, emotionally or mentally…or may be all four at once…it is very important to realize that we need to take care, to rest, refresh & restore…this especially allows God to…
Be our shepherd, supply for us, giving us a sweet place to lie our weary bodies & a calm peaceful place to restore our souls…to guide us forward into what He has for us, in His will for our lives, to give Him glory…
Psalm 23: 1-3 Refer
Well I hope you enjoyed being transported to our time of reflection today, it was so lovely to have you drop by…
Until next time dear friend…

Tea With Jennifer 
Kuddos for admitting you are at this place, so often we are afraid to in our hurry-do-more culture. Rest well my friend. And let God shepherd you.
Thank you Theresa! 😀
Jennifer,
You are smart and I would be inclined to imitate your example – that when you are drained and have nothing left to give, put your feet up, pour yourself a cup of tea, and just let the Lord love on you and refresh you as only He can. Needed the reminder today as I am feeling a bit strung out…
Blessings,
Bev xx
Hi Bev,
We’ll put our feet up together shall we & enjoy God’s love, peace & serenity as we sip our cuppas & let Him take our cares. Bless you my friend 😀
I love the ‘digging for treasure’ philosophy! That’s such a great way to look at it!
Thank you Aryn! 😀
It’s so crucial that we remember to bring even our exhaustion and emptiness to Jesus!
Absolutely Michele! 😀
I know what that feels like! Thank you for the reminder that it’s ok to have nothing left and to give ourselves time to refill at the feet of Jesus.
You’re welcome Anita, I’m saddened to hear you too know what that’s like. May you find God’s rest & restoration 😀
Thanks!
It is getting cold here in Georgia too, I have found myself with a cuppa soup because we southerners still drink iced tea. Though I have enjoyed some hot tea as well. Dreams are interesting and do contain messages for, the Lord. I always tell people to use caution because some of the books are just wrong. I saw a minister from Australia who had written a Christian book about dreams, I wish I could remember his name, I hope to find that book. May we have a season of rest, you really can be spent out in all ways at once.
Yes, I agree Rebecca about dreams, lovely to hear you enjoy tea to! I enjoy hot tea mostly it is such a comforting experience 😀
I love spending time with you and reading about all of your teas and journeys.
It’s lovely having you drop by to enjoy our time together Mary!
