take out time to rest

thank you all for your recents posts i've been having problems commenting on posts lately, so i ran on over to john's office today and i thought i'd just post we've gone deeper, in to our own spirituality and examining it closer...more than i ever thought it's so easy to be shallow, but here's my post: what is a "day off" in ministry? there is no such a thing. i isolated myself for a whole day last tuesday...no prayer, no study, just going to vote, sent one email, and slept all day at the house and hung out with my child. there must be a better way, it was horrible. it was good, i got some rest, but i felt so alone. we in ministry will spend most of our off time with church people, talking about ministry, or talking to people who need the love of Jesus...we can't help it, we are always "on" tell me, what do you think ministers can do to rest with out being isolated? please comment if you can and let me know... (i'm starting to wonder if i should get some hobbies)
