Couldn't help but cry at the last part because as someone who sees her worth by how busy she is, I am currently feeling useless because I decided to resign from my job to take a rest because of how my previous job affected my physical and mental health. I am thankful I came across this, thank you for the beautiful reminder that there is more to gain than to lose when we decide to care of our selves by taking our time to rest.
It's okay. we are all in different season in life. It's just up to you on how you are going to be fruitful. Keep on learning. Stay on your phase. And ask God for WISDOM :)
We’re exactly on the same boat. Only now I realized that work can sometimes be detrimental to ones health if we don’t know when to take a pause. I hope you’re doing ok. If you need someone to talk to, there’s got to be a way.. let me know. Feel blessed everyday 🙏🏻 stay safe and sane ☺️
"We need to find pockets of rest in our daily lives." This vlog helped me validate my need for daily rest. Thank you for teaching our generation to value rest; knowing that we are not in control of life and its needs but that God will surely take care of them. ❤️
Thank you ms rica, everytime i listened to your vlogs. It made me think of realizations in life. Where alam mo ung nagkakaintindihan tayo sa mga buhay buhay. Im also a full time mom, and it really tiring lalo na pag laging nasa bahay and paulit ulit nalng ung routine. This time, im gonna of what am i happy doing , so i can relax myself. Something like that. Keep inspiring mam rica to everyone like us. 😘❤️ hope you notice this. 🥰
Burn out is real... I found myself in the emergency room last year in the middle of a pandemic. Thank God for that wake up call. Slowing down and being mindful these days. Taking care of ourselves is a priority.
pag open ko nag youtube tonight nakita ko tong vlog nato. and kanina talagang umiiyak ako kasi i feel depress, exhausted sa work and also sa family. pasan na pasan ang buong mundo. while watching the vlog napaiyak talaga ako. the value of rest is really important. and also making time with the Lord. sometimes I really forgot doing my devotion kasi sobrang tired na after work but then as i reflect, yung time na nag devotion & pray ako talaga nman nabawasan yung bigat na pasanin ko.
Cried at the "meaning of rest" part. 💔 Though it's the opposite. I have been struggling with indolence and idleness for quite some time so that part of the video really got me. I felt like every time I am idle, I am resting but I realized that it is just my way to avoid doing any thing. It made me realize that this "rest" I am having is not rest at all, I am just being a slave of indolence. Just like what you said about sugar and work. Enough amount of it is fine but too much will cause a problem, same goes with being idle. I pray for the time I am free from being a slave of pointless rest.
Thank you Ate Rica on your newest vlog. For the past 3 months I'm still on depression due that I had my second miscarriage. Often times wala akong gana sa kahit na anong bagay sobrang depression ang dinadanas ko, sobrang bugnot, lungkot, parang wala akong joy sa kahit anong meron sa paligid ko. Kaya lagi ako nanonood ng vlog mo Ate at inaabangan ko talaga every weekend also your podcast on Spotify. God is with us! 💝💝💝
"Mahilig ako magtrabaho kasi ito ang identity ko" sobrang tagos at sa punto na gusto kong magpahinga hindi ko na alam ang totoong pahinga. What a powerful sunday talk, Ms.Rica!.
Some people might not understand us as we get tired of everydays routine and stress but giving ourselves time to cleanse and restart is really a BIG DEAL for our mental health. Thank you for this Ms. Rica. ♥️
Thank you Ms. Rica it's been 4 years I've been struggling feeling lost,left behind, demotivated but I have faith that my confidence will be back again and while waiting I learned about self -love appreciate the little things and limit my time in social media not to compare myself to everyone process really takes time :) God hears our heart always and you're not alone
Thank you Miss Rica for this vlog. I got reminded that I don’t need to burn-out myself especially this pandemic. Since last year I had this difficulty of getting a complete rest because I am working in Hospital and working in COVID ward. Sometimes, I set aside my devotion time and my selah time 🥺 Thank you for this topic and I am sure that God talked to me through you 🥺💛
I like the contents of Ms Rica's channel. It makes me realized a lot of things. Before, I worked Mondays to Saturdays and during Sundays I do all the household works. I felt so restless. 4 years have passed before I decided to stop working and give myself the time it needed. Scarred at the beginning, but I know God is with me and I know its Him who whispered to me to stop all of it. I have another job now where I can only get to work for 5 days and I have 2 days for myself to do the things I like. And that 2 days, I can simply rest my mind away from work. It hits me hard when Ms. Rica said that God frees us from what enslaves us so we can actually rest. ❤️
I want you to know that I am inspired the way you handle yourself, your battles and your motherhood. You are making me realize how powerful, faithful and great our God is. Keep in doing what you are doing. You are a blessing to your viewers.
All moms are. Whether they are working full time or stay at home. God knows how much they sacrifice and how much we are tired but still push for our kids. Hi five Ms Rica and know you are not alone
Agree. Full of wisdom. Napanood ko po yung vlog mo with Ms. Toni. Nung sinabi mo na "woman of wisdom" siya. But with this video, I can see that God has done an amazing work in your life. You have that wisdom too. Amazing work, Lord! Ang galing mo talaga!
I've been watching your vlogs for quite a long time and it honestly puzzles me why you still don't have million+ subscribers!?! Contents like these deserve to have tons! Full of wisdom, substance and hope! Praying that you and Ptr. Joe will be blessed more so you can also bless others more with His word! 🥰🙏
This is your video content that I really really love. Helped me a lot to look after myself: my time with the lord, a bit of stretching, a good coffee, a walk and a good read before going to bed. Thank you for this. God bless you.
Aside from Andi's blog which shows life's simplicity and what happiness really is, I am really drawn to your blogs, Miss Rica. I felt like I know you or felt you on a deeper level when I watch you. I only knew you as an actress before, but you inspire me more now. There was a point in my life when I am burned out and demotivated, and this blog makes my mind pause for a moment and looks at how things have changed for me and how I can make them better. Thank you again.
Rewatching this video. Last year, I was having a hard time at work, and it was very timely that this video was published. Now, I just resigned from my 3-year work. It was, indeed, one of the most difficult decisions I had to do. This video helped me during those times, until now. Kudos Ms. Rica! Keep producing this kind of self-help and motivational vlogs for God's glory! 🙌 God bless you and your family, Ms. Rica 🥰
That is true ms. Rica. Yung tunay na rest ay yung hindi lng literal na wla kang ginawa sa isang buong araw pro yung utak mo ay puno nman sa pag.iisip.. kundi yung tunay na pahinga ay yung masaya ka at feeling fullfilled ka khit na meron kang ginagawa.💕💕💕
Thank you for reminding us the importance of rest Ms. Rica! A lot of us doesn't really feel na "fully rested or recharged" kahit complete tulog mo or nakapagbakasyon kasi nga walang regularity, quality and meaning. God Bless you!
A word of wisdom to be a rest day to your daily life so warm and good condition with your mind and body. Thank you so much 🥰 take care and stay healthy and safe 🙏 with your family 💓💓💓
Thanks Ms.Rica! Work is a gift from God. At my age 58 years old single😄and happy, and may work pa rin by God's grace. Just to share, kapag off na ako, nag hand sew ako while watching your vlogs.hahaha.
Dearest Rica, thank you for the wise words, I am on the way for work, night shift, I worked in a very pressured area, and there are many times I think that i made a worst mistake of coming abroad and worked for the foreigners. I find myself unmotivated, lack or enthusiasm and wishing I could have worked somewhere else. I just came back from 3 day break after 3 duty nights, yet I still feel exhausted even though its going to be 1 night only and tomorrow I will be sleeping all day. This exhaustion from lack of motivation is creeping in me and I was looking for a source of inspiration. Thank you for this vlog, I am now your fan as a person because I am inspired with what you've been doing in your life. Keep smiling, God be with you and your fam.
Very timely. I have alot on my plate right now. I have 2 business and I am a fulltime frontliner. But, thank you Rica for this video for reminding me that in a very busy day, a day full of errands and work, a time to pause wont harm me or my life. God is always with me thru prayers and devotions. God bless you and your family Rica.
My takeaway would be yung magpapahinga ka to refuel and to refresh your mind and soul. Madalas kasi pahinga ko lang is either matulog or just lay in bed while mindlessly scrolling social media. Kaya pala everytime, lagi pa rin akong pagod mentally and physically. Kasi pala my rest wasn't the rest that i really needed. Sobrang daming wisdom from this vlog. Thank you for sharing this wisdom to us Ms. Rica. God bless po.
Every time may vlog kayo miss rica im so excited nakakakuha ako ng mga inspirational and motivation from you for being you a wife to your husband and mother to your kids. ❤️
Thank you po Ms Rica. Somehow I feel relieved for the rest that I decided to take recently. I kept asking myself if I disappointed God for it, I keep on praying na wag Nya lang akong bitawan and that will help me in every step I take everyday.
This vlog is so timely! Super relate. Malapit-lapit na akong maiyak because your words of wisdom is so true po. "Ang mga taong marunong magpahinga ay tunay na malayang tao." As a young pastor, ministry can really be tiring, idagdag pa mga unexpected happenings and personal battles mo, nakakapagod and frustrating po talaga. Thank you a lot! This vlog is like a confirmation on my part that really rest is not being selfish but shows how God freed us flom slavery.
Ever since that i became a Christian, lagi ng nakatatak sa isip ko na pag mag hahanap ng work is dapat weekend off or atleast Sunday ang off, i always says no pag natatanggap ako then hindi weekend off. Salamat nalang sa lahat 😂 pero alam ko na si Lord ang magbibigay nun. Hindi man ganun kalakihan ang sahod but it's enough to provide our necessities. Feeling ko kasi lalo kong hihina if i skip my date with God🤷🏻♀❤ Thank you for this Ms. Rica God bless❤
Thank you Ms. Rica for sharing this to us. Most of us might not be aware of the true meaning of rest but through this video I realized that I must find what makes me wholeheartedly happy. At this young age I needed to work while studying. I must say that it was really exhausting job to the point that my body was already giving up. I thought being a crew in a fast food while being a student assistant and being just a student was an easy task, that I can do all that in within every single day. Until I found myself unhappy and extremely tired. There were times that my surrounding is silent yet my mind is still not at peace. As the pandemic comes, it doubled the stress, but we have to cope up for us to survive. Anyway what's important is having some pauses in our lives, to regain happiness, to be at peace again and to know yourself again. Always remember why you started.
Whenever a video is posted on this channel I make sure to watch it right away when I see it... but this one made me think if I should watch it or huwag muna, and it took me 48 hours to do so because I honestly know, it will be tackling about a lesson I myself refuse to learn... taking a rest... I admit that I do exhaust my everything for work and I always felt guilty when I am "resting". And here's Ate Rica, reminding us the true meaning of it, she's like God's Angel saying "come to Jesus and he'll give you rest". Thank you so much Ate for this, truly, God's love shines in you.
I’m beyond grateful na nakita ko tong video just in time of my emotional bouts. I felt almost exhausted dahil sa work ko as nurse ofw. I just had my whole afternoon of so-called ‘rest’. I went to the beach for a swim and stayed there until night just to lie-down on the sand, did stretching, listened to mellow music, had an icecream and time of reflection.. i felt to full-filled today. Though I’m feeling the body pains afterwards, but yung joy ang nanaig sa puso ko. Thank you ms Rica. Now all those times na my heart seemed like screaming for a quick break from work and thinking , ngaun alam ko valid pala lahat yun. Minsan naiisip ko na sayang ang pera, ipunin ko nalang.. but it’s not right. I feel so sorry for exhausting my body unjustly.
Hello Ms. Rica, Thank you for this. Feeling ko alam ni god na nakakalimutan ko sya na hindi ako lumalapit sa kanya. Kahit ang bigat bigat ng pakiramdam ko. Hindi ko binibigay lahat sa kanya. So he sent some people na paalala sakin na nandyan sya to guide me, para hindi ako pabayaan at para masabi ko sa sarili ko na kakayanin ko to. Ngayon i taking small step to know him.
Hi Rica it’s so good to hear your thoughts about Rest. I am still waiting for my Rest-time since we are on our „Transition Season“ with 8 kids forcely left on my own care, rest is what I hungered for, I know God will give me but for now it is not easy to find it. Thank you and I appreciate your words of wisdom, God bless your entire family.
This is exactly what I needed to hear and watch!! I've been working literally day 'til night until my body screamed for rest! Right now, Im a little sick but my mind is thinking about work. After watching this video, I need to focus on taking rest seriously. Thanks Ms Rica, I feel rewired and really blessed. ❤🧡❤
Thank you Ms.Rica for this vlog.. Very much true, i can relate to your story,i'm a 55 yo mom and wife, very workaholic. The Lord reminded me that rest is a gift, putting me in a posture of rest and not striving to much. Also setting healthy boundaries (just what i've learned from a healing program we attended). God bless and keep you.
Thank you Ms. Rica for that reminder about the importantance of Sabbath. I agree that God appointed 1 day in a week to rest. He knows we need it as we strive harder in this mortal life. I felt loved by God as his child through this vlog. What a great wisdom of you Ms. Rica 💖
I love you Ms. Rica❤️i thank God for your life...your are true about taking rest👍im so very toxic and burnout for many things... But that profound peace that God gives to those who love and obey him regardless of circumstances😍
hi Ms Rica, i wanted to genuinely thank you for sharing this. Hindi naman nakaka iyak ang content pro naiiyak ako for the wisdom na binigay ni Lord sayo and shinare mo sa amin ❤️🙏 thank you thabk you po.. always watching your vlogs kasi an daming napupulot na aral and wisdom ❤️ God bless you po and your family 🙏❤️
Thank you Ms. Rica. Perfect timing po itong video nyo kasi feeling burn out na din ako dito sa Kuwait as an ofw. I really like your contents po. Thank you and God bless.
I also get tired a lot of times studying for the board exam. And it demotivates me sometimes to keep on going because of the uncertainty and postponement. But thankfully, I've immersed myself with bible verses that immensely motivated me. And I'm sharing one: Galatians 6:9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
This vlog hits me personally I’ve been overthinking since the pandemic started. And after giving birth last March I become more anxious. And pray to God to heal me with this postpartum.. Thanks for sharing this Ms. Rica. We all really need to rest our mind and heart and we can find this through our Lord God Jesus Christ. This will also deepen our relationship with God.
The past months was the toughest so far for me. Thank you Ms. Carla I needed this. Very timely. We are here for you we feel you. For me, you are God's medium to uplift and inspire other people too. God bless you more.
Thank you so much for this Ms Rica! I've always admired your vlogs and this has really got me teary eyed!!! I've been a teacher here in China and has been stucked here since 2019 because of the pandemic and worse and stressful things have happened since then. One of the meanings of 'rest' for me now is spending time with my dog and of course talking with my fam sa pinas. ❤️🙏 God bless u and ur fam! You've been a source of strength and wisdom!
Thank you so much Ms. Rica! Lately, sobrang napapagod na talaga ko, na-buburn out and feel ko kahit matulog ako ng matulog sobrang pagod pa din ako. This video helps me a lot. Thank God for using you. God bless you and your family! 💙
Yes ate Rica, Rest is a must. Im a Covid positive and now i genuinely understand to stop for a while, reflect on the things that are really needed in life. Emotional watching this vlog.
Grabe I thought that this was just this week. And when I saw the timestamp 3 months ago na pala which means God uses this video for me to understand the importance of rest. I'm tired as well. Since i was tested positive in covid, financially struggling, and lack of motivation na sa work.
Very timely.. Rest or work, it's easy to focus on one over the other kaya it's either we become lazy or burned out. Kailangan tlaga may balance and we have to do it regularly. Thank you for reminding us Ms. Rica, that we are not slaves to our work/job/activities, etc. and it's important to find an activity that is an avocation for us so that we can be refreshed. I will live as a free woman that I really am, from now on. Thank you! And looking forward to more great contents ❤️ - an avid weekly viewer
So timely for me. 🙏 God did really a perfect example of rest when he rested after the creation days. We, as moms, need to have a ME TIME to refresh our mind, body and soul. I am always looking forward to watching your vlog weekly. It is very enlightening to watch and listen to you. God bless you as you do this kind of ministry.🙏👍 I hope to hear from you on how you do as a pastor’s wife. I believe you can inspire a pastor’s wife like me. ❤️❤️❤️
Kanina lang, I was crying so hard at nagrarant ako kay Lord kasi pagod na pagod na ako sa situation ko kaya thank you po for this. :) All I need is rest. A rest from everything.
Thank u for sharing the true meaning of rest. Its not just about taking rest just for the sake of it but to do something that will help us to be productive while we are on rest😊👍
While as watching this vlog, can’t helped but teared..thank you so much for giving me the true meaning of “rest”. May you continue to inspire us Rica with your beautiful words from God. More powers and God bless you and your family. Ava-From Las Vegas.
So inspiring🙏 Nakaka amazed ang Lord God used her life as a living testimony😇😇...at salamat may natutunan aq bout Sabbath🙏☝️thanks God more vlogs Sis.Rica P
Thank you for this video Rica. 💗 This is the reason why my family and I feel so blessed to know and to observe the 4th commandment- “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor...but the seventh day is a Sabbath to Yahweh your Elohim.” (Exodus 20:8-10). Blessings!
I needed to see this. Thank you. There are people kasi around us sometimes na kapag sinabihan mo ng, "I needed to take a rest" and they'll judge you. Tingin nila sa'yo is makina na hindi napapagod at hindi nakakaramdam .
Just what I needed to hear and realise right now! Thank you Ms. Rica! Since pandemic started, parang wala akong quality rest kahit na naka wfh naman and hindi busy. Yun pala, I was too anxious na kahit wala naman na ako ginagawa physically, my mind is still running thinking and worrying. Thank you for reminding me that God is in full control and and I should take that much needed quality rest. 💕
watching your vlogs about rest and mental health ( your vlog with your husband with video cover SPEAKING UP FOR THE FIRST TIME) make me super duper cry. Asa 4mins vid palang ako nitong vid mo and then ung isa asa 6mins palang ako humahagulgul na ako sa office! I really feel youuuu.. I am going through this! ambilis ng mga pangyayari lalo n sa part ng nanay kana then narealize mo lng bgla nanay kn nga talga.. you know.. it's hard to describe nkugn anung nararamdaman mo. Layer by layer nagpapatong patong lahat.. oh God knows!! so harrrd!! But your vlogs like this helps me.. 😭😭😭
Every week lagi akong nag aabang ng vlog mo, honestly it refresh my soul sa mga wisdom na lagi mo shineshare. Part of me i know it helps me from emotional healing.
Thank You Ms. Rica😊 God is good! I gave birth just few days ago and wala pa ako masyadong tulog kasi sa umaga ako pa nag aasikaso sa toddler ko. I'm a kind of workaholic when it comes to chores at I resented to rest before. Now, I look back and realized that I wasted so much time getting everything done right, my way na at the end left me so exhausted. Now I look forward to "Rest" with the help of God. :)
I have watched ALL of your vlogs ate Carla but this time lang ako na-compel na mag-comment. Hagulgol 😭 Grabe yung wisdom dito sa vlog na ito. My second favourite after yung Seasons one. I’m an OFW and a mom of 2 kids under age of 4. Tuwing day off ko, day off din ng aming nanny. Financially I am not able to pay her more kaya bawi ako sa day offs na bigay sa kanya. As a result, SOBRANG pagod na ako. The last time I had a mani-pedi was 2017 pa. Ganon ko na-deprive ang sarili ko. I lay all of my pagod, anxiety and financial troubles at the feet of His throne and trust na He will provide what my family needs when I start to pursue my own days of quality rest 🙏🏽 Thanks so much for being salt and light ate ❤️
Thank you for doing this vlog. Very timely. This is what I need right now. 🥲💕 I am exhausted. I am actually crying while watching. Thank you for enlightening me. 💕
God bless you Rica for using your influence to spread the Word and be a true witness of Gods work in you. Keep up the good work in resting in God’s Grace.
Ang mga taong marunong magpahinga, ay tunay na malalayang tao. very timely ❤️ sa ngayon mas importante na po talaga yung pahinga dahil mas nakakapagod pag hinahabol mo lagi yung timeline mo tapos hindi pa naman pala timeline ng Lord para sayo. Enjoy every moment with the presence of God 🙌❤️
This vlog enlightens me. From a career woman to a full time mom. Doing all the house chores and taking care of my toddler the whole day is so tiring. Na realized ko din na physically I'm tired but I love doing it and that is my joy. Minsan kc gusto ko gawin at matapos lahat in a day na akala ko si superwoman ako. Thanks for the reminder sis💖
Totally agree with everything u shared Ms Rica. Indeed, rest is essential part of self-care & healing whether physically, spiritually & mentally. We only have one body/soul so better take care of it by taking regular rest.
Can't help but to share this to my fellow teachers.. we need to rest.. we are all burned out.. 😫 thanks much mam rica! 🙏❤️ More powers to u!!! And please continue to inspire many..
Couldn't help but cry at the last part because as someone who sees her worth by how busy she is, I am currently feeling useless because I decided to resign from my job to take a rest because of how my previous job affected my physical and mental health. I am thankful I came across this, thank you for the beautiful reminder that there is more to gain than to lose when we decide to care of our selves by taking our time to rest.
It's okay. we are all in different season in life. It's just up to you on how you are going to be fruitful. Keep on learning. Stay on your phase. And ask God for WISDOM :)
We’re exactly on the same boat. Only now I realized that work can sometimes be detrimental to ones health if we don’t know when to take a pause. I hope you’re doing ok. If you need someone to talk to, there’s got to be a way.. let me know. Feel blessed everyday 🙏🏻 stay safe and sane ☺️

Thanks Ms.Rica! Work is a gift from God. At my age 58 years old single😄and happy, and may work pa rin by God's grace. Just to share, kapag off na ako, nag hand sew ako while watching your vlogs.hahaha.
"Lord you are my boss.." Thank you Lord!!!! Grabe!!! tagos na tagos Rica!!! Thank God for using you for us!
Ito dapat ung may mga millions of views kasi napaka sarap sa heart and nakaka wala ng mga anxiety na nangyayari sw mundo.God Bless us all🙏
Wow Ms. Rica ❤️ Praise God 😊
“This is why you can rest because God has freed us from slavery.” ❤️❤️❤️
Dearest Rica, thank you for the wise words, I am on the way for work, night shift, I worked in a very pressured area, and there are many times I think that i made a worst mistake of coming abroad and worked for the foreigners. I find myself unmotivated, lack or enthusiasm and wishing I could have worked somewhere else. I just came back from 3 day break after 3 duty nights, yet I still feel exhausted even though its going to be 1 night only and tomorrow I will be sleeping all day. This exhaustion from lack of motivation is creeping in me and I was looking for a source of inspiration. Thank you for this vlog, I am now your fan as a person because I am inspired with what you've been doing in your life. Keep smiling, God be with you and your fam.
Very timely. I have alot on my plate right now. I have 2 business and I am a fulltime frontliner. But, thank you Rica for this video for reminding me that in a very busy day, a day full of errands and work, a time to pause wont harm me or my life. God is always with me thru prayers and devotions. God bless you and your family Rica.
My takeaway would be yung magpapahinga ka to refuel and to refresh your mind and soul. Madalas kasi pahinga ko lang is either matulog or just lay in bed while mindlessly scrolling social media. Kaya pala everytime, lagi pa rin akong pagod mentally and physically. Kasi pala my rest wasn't the rest that i really needed. Sobrang daming wisdom from this vlog. Thank you for sharing this wisdom to us Ms. Rica. God bless po.
Every time may vlog kayo miss rica im so excited nakakakuha ako ng mga inspirational and motivation from you for being you a wife to your husband and mother to your kids. ❤️
Sana madaming estudyante ang makapanuod nito! Praise God
Thank you po Ms Rica. Somehow I feel relieved for the rest that I decided to take recently.
I kept asking myself if I disappointed God for it, I keep on praying na wag Nya lang akong bitawan and that will help me in every step I take everyday.
Wow, thank God for this message. I feel like He’s talking to me directly. ❤️ Thanks Ms. Rica ❤️
This vlog is so timely! Super relate. Malapit-lapit na akong maiyak because your words of wisdom is so true po.
"Ang mga taong marunong magpahinga ay tunay na malayang tao."
As a young pastor, ministry can really be tiring, idagdag pa mga unexpected happenings and personal battles mo, nakakapagod and frustrating po talaga. Thank you a lot! This vlog is like a confirmation on my part that really rest is not being selfish but shows how God freed us flom slavery.
Ever since that i became a Christian, lagi ng nakatatak sa isip ko na pag mag hahanap ng work is dapat weekend off or atleast Sunday ang off, i always says no pag natatanggap ako then hindi weekend off. Salamat nalang sa lahat 😂 pero alam ko na si Lord ang magbibigay nun. Hindi man ganun kalakihan ang sahod but it's enough to provide our necessities. Feeling ko kasi lalo kong hihina if i skip my date with God🤷🏻♀❤ Thank you for this Ms. Rica God bless❤
Thank you Ms. Rica for sharing this to us. Most of us might not be aware of the true meaning of rest but through this video I realized that I must find what makes me wholeheartedly happy. At this young age I needed to work while studying. I must say that it was really exhausting job to the point that my body was already giving up. I thought being a crew in a fast food while being a student assistant and being just a student was an easy task, that I can do all that in within every single day. Until I found myself unhappy and extremely tired. There were times that my surrounding is silent yet my mind is still not at peace. As the pandemic comes, it doubled the stress, but we have to cope up for us to survive. Anyway what's important is having some pauses in our lives, to regain happiness, to be at peace again and to know yourself again. Always remember why you started.
Whenever a video is posted on this channel I make sure to watch it right away when I see it... but this one made me think if I should watch it or huwag muna, and it took me 48 hours to do so because I honestly know, it will be tackling about a lesson I myself refuse to learn... taking a rest... I admit that I do exhaust my everything for work and I always felt guilty when I am "resting". And here's Ate Rica, reminding us the true meaning of it, she's like God's Angel saying "come to Jesus and he'll give you rest".
Thank you so much Ate for this, truly, God's love shines in you.
I’m beyond grateful na nakita ko tong video just in time of my emotional bouts. I felt almost exhausted dahil sa work ko as nurse ofw. I just had my whole afternoon of so-called ‘rest’. I went to the beach for a swim and stayed there until night just to lie-down on the sand, did stretching, listened to mellow music, had an icecream and time of reflection.. i felt to full-filled today. Though I’m feeling the body pains afterwards, but yung joy ang nanaig sa puso ko. Thank you ms Rica.
Now all those times na my heart seemed like screaming for a quick break from work and thinking , ngaun alam ko valid pala lahat yun. Minsan naiisip ko na sayang ang pera, ipunin ko nalang.. but it’s not right. I feel so sorry for exhausting my body unjustly.
Amazing revelation about the real meaning of rest!
Hello Ms. Rica, Thank you for this.
Feeling ko alam ni god na nakakalimutan ko sya na hindi ako lumalapit sa kanya. Kahit ang bigat bigat ng pakiramdam ko. Hindi ko binibigay lahat sa kanya. So he sent some people na paalala sakin na nandyan sya to guide me, para hindi ako pabayaan at para masabi ko sa sarili ko na kakayanin ko to. Ngayon i taking small step to know him.
A very timely reminder Mrs. Rica. Minsan kahit 'day off' natin, yung mind natin hindi naman nag sstop thinking, working, being anxious.
Hi Rica it’s so good to hear your thoughts about Rest. I am still waiting for my Rest-time since we are on our „Transition Season“ with 8 kids forcely left on my own care, rest is what I hungered for, I know God will give me but for now it is not easy to find it. Thank you and I appreciate your words of wisdom, God bless your entire family.
Love this! Feel like victory group 'virtual way.' Thank you for this, Ms. Rica. Very timely ❤
This is exactly what I needed to hear and watch!! I've been working literally day 'til night until my body screamed for rest! Right now, Im a little sick but my mind is thinking about work. After watching this video, I need to focus on taking rest seriously. Thanks Ms Rica, I feel rewired and really blessed. ❤🧡❤
Thank you Ms.Rica for this vlog..
Very much true, i can relate to your story,i'm a 55 yo mom and wife, very workaholic. The Lord reminded me that rest is a gift, putting me in a posture of rest and not striving to much. Also setting healthy boundaries (just what i've learned from a healing program we attended). God bless and keep you.
Just tears while listening.. Thank you for sharing Rica! God bless you & your loved ones always.
Thank you Ms. Rica for that reminder about the importantance of Sabbath. I agree that God appointed 1 day in a week to rest. He knows we need it as we strive harder in this mortal life. I felt loved by God as his child through this vlog. What a great wisdom of you Ms. Rica 💖
I love you Ms. Rica❤️i thank God for your life...your are true about taking rest👍im so very toxic and burnout for many things... But that profound peace that God gives to those who love and obey him regardless of circumstances😍
hi Ms Rica, i wanted to genuinely thank you for sharing this. Hindi naman nakaka iyak ang content pro naiiyak ako for the wisdom na binigay ni Lord sayo and shinare mo sa amin ❤️🙏 thank you thabk you po.. always watching your vlogs kasi an daming napupulot na aral and wisdom ❤️ God bless you po and your family 🙏❤️
Relate to this. Its important to pause and take care of oneself. Learn this the hard way.
NAPAKAGANDA. YOUR INSIGHTS ARE SO HEPLFUL. Thank you Ms Rica.
Thank you Ms. Rica. Perfect timing po itong video nyo kasi feeling burn out na din ako dito sa Kuwait as an ofw. I really like your contents po. Thank you and God bless.
I also get tired a lot of times studying for the board exam. And it demotivates me sometimes to keep on going because of the uncertainty and postponement. But thankfully, I've immersed myself with bible verses that immensely motivated me. And I'm sharing one:
Galatians 6:9
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
"ANYTHING THAT WEIGHS YOU DOWN CUT IT!" ❤
💚💛❤️
This vlog hits me personally I’ve been overthinking since the pandemic started. And after giving birth last March I become more anxious. And pray to God to heal me with this postpartum.. Thanks for sharing this Ms. Rica. We all really need to rest our mind and heart and we can find this through our Lord God Jesus Christ. This will also deepen our relationship with God.
The past months was the toughest so far for me. Thank you Ms. Carla I needed this. Very timely. We are here for you we feel you. For me, you are God's medium to uplift and inspire other people too. God bless you more.
Thank you so much for this Ms Rica! I've always admired your vlogs and this has really got me teary eyed!!! I've been a teacher here in China and has been stucked here since 2019 because of the pandemic and worse and stressful things have happened since then. One of the meanings of 'rest' for me now is spending time with my dog and of course talking with my fam sa pinas. ❤️🙏 God bless u and ur fam! You've been a source of strength and wisdom!
Thank you so much Ms. Rica! Lately, sobrang napapagod na talaga ko, na-buburn out and feel ko kahit matulog ako ng matulog sobrang pagod pa din ako. This video helps me a lot. Thank God for using you. God bless you and your family! 💙
You are one of my Godly Counsels I consider in my decisions in life. You inspire me. Thank you, Ms. Rica. ❤️🙏🏻💛 God Bless .🙏🏻
Yes ate Rica, Rest is a must. Im a Covid positive and now i genuinely understand to stop for a while, reflect on the things that are really needed in life. Emotional watching this vlog.
Naiyak po ako. I felt that God spoke to me through your vlog Ms. Rica. Thank you & God bless.
Thank you so much Miss Rica this is what I need this today. God bless you more.
Grabe I thought that this was just this week. And when I saw the timestamp 3 months ago na pala which means God uses this video for me to understand the importance of rest.
I'm tired as well. Since i was tested positive in covid, financially struggling, and lack of motivation na sa work.
Very timely.. Rest or work, it's easy to focus on one over the other kaya it's either we become lazy or burned out. Kailangan tlaga may balance and we have to do it regularly. Thank you for reminding us Ms. Rica, that we are not slaves to our work/job/activities, etc. and it's important to find an activity that is an avocation for us so that we can be refreshed. I will live as a free woman that I really am, from now on. Thank you! And looking forward to more great contents ❤️

So timely for me. 🙏
God did really a perfect example of rest when he rested after the creation days.
We, as moms, need to have a ME TIME to refresh our mind, body and soul.
I am always looking forward to watching your vlog weekly. It is very enlightening to watch and listen to you.
God bless you as you do this kind of ministry.🙏👍
I hope to hear from you on how you do as a pastor’s wife.
I believe you can inspire a pastor’s wife like me. ❤️❤️❤️
For the nth time, this reminder means a lot! 😇🥺
Kanina lang, I was crying so hard at nagrarant ako kay Lord kasi pagod na pagod na ako sa situation ko kaya thank you po for this. :) All I need is rest. A rest from everything.
Thank u for sharing the true meaning of rest. Its not just about taking rest just for the sake of it but to do something that will help us to be productive while we are on rest😊👍
Ang mga taong marunong magpahinga ay mga malalayang tao. -Thissss ✨❤️ Thanks Ms. Rica. Your vlog is very timely.
I thank God for this! May word po si Lord for me here huhu. So good for my soul!!! 🥰❤️
watching your vlogs is my pocket of rest 🍃😌
This is so accurate to what I’ve been feeling lately but God is so good that He knows what my heart and soul needs to hear.
While as watching this vlog, can’t helped but teared..thank you so much for giving me the true meaning of “rest”. May you continue to inspire us Rica with your beautiful words from God. More powers and God bless you and your family. Ava-From Las Vegas.
So inspiring🙏 Nakaka amazed ang Lord God used her life as a living testimony😇😇...at salamat may natutunan aq bout Sabbath🙏☝️thanks God
more vlogs Sis.Rica P
Thank you for this video Rica. 💗
This is the reason why my family and I feel so blessed to know and to observe the 4th commandment- “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor...but the seventh day is a Sabbath to Yahweh your Elohim.” (Exodus 20:8-10). Blessings!
I needed to see this. Thank you. There are people kasi around us sometimes na kapag sinabihan mo ng, "I needed to take a rest" and they'll judge you. Tingin nila sa'yo is makina na hindi napapagod at hindi nakakaramdam .
Just what I needed to hear and realise right now! Thank you Ms. Rica! Since pandemic started, parang wala akong quality rest kahit na naka wfh naman and hindi busy. Yun pala, I was too anxious na kahit wala naman na ako ginagawa physically, my mind is still running thinking and worrying. Thank you for reminding me that God is in full control and and I should take that much needed quality rest. 💕
watching your vlogs about rest and mental health ( your vlog with your husband with video cover SPEAKING UP FOR THE FIRST TIME) make me super duper cry. Asa 4mins vid palang ako nitong vid mo and then ung isa asa 6mins palang ako humahagulgul na ako sa office! I really feel youuuu.. I am going through this! ambilis ng mga pangyayari lalo n sa part ng nanay kana then narealize mo lng bgla nanay kn nga talga.. you know.. it's hard to describe nkugn anung nararamdaman mo. Layer by layer nagpapatong patong lahat.. oh God knows!! so harrrd!! But your vlogs like this helps me.. 😭😭😭
Every week lagi akong nag aabang ng vlog mo, honestly it refresh my soul sa mga wisdom na lagi mo shineshare. Part of me i know it helps me from emotional healing.
Finding that balance is so important. Taking care of oneself is a priority. I like these videos, thank you for sharing! 🤙
Thank You Ms. Rica😊 God is good! I gave birth just few days ago and wala pa ako masyadong tulog kasi sa umaga ako pa nag aasikaso sa toddler ko. I'm a kind of workaholic when it comes to chores at I resented to rest before. Now, I look back and realized that I wasted so much time getting everything done right, my way na at the end left me so exhausted. Now I look forward to "Rest" with the help of God. :)
I have watched ALL of your vlogs ate Carla but this time lang ako na-compel na mag-comment. Hagulgol 😭 Grabe yung wisdom dito sa vlog na ito. My second favourite after yung Seasons one. I’m an OFW and a mom of 2 kids under age of 4. Tuwing day off ko, day off din ng aming nanny. Financially I am not able to pay her more kaya bawi ako sa day offs na bigay sa kanya. As a result, SOBRANG pagod na ako. The last time I had a mani-pedi was 2017 pa. Ganon ko na-deprive ang sarili ko. I lay all of my pagod, anxiety and financial troubles at the feet of His throne and trust na He will provide what my family needs when I start to pursue my own days of quality rest 🙏🏽 Thanks so much for being salt and light ate ❤️
Thank you for doing this vlog. Very timely. This is what I need right now. 🥲💕 I am exhausted. I am actually crying while watching. Thank you for enlightening me. 💕
God bless you Rica for using your influence to spread the Word and be a true witness of Gods work in you. Keep up the good work in resting in God’s Grace.
Ang mga taong marunong magpahinga, ay tunay na malalayang tao.
very timely ❤️ sa ngayon mas importante na po talaga yung pahinga dahil mas nakakapagod pag hinahabol mo lagi yung timeline mo tapos hindi pa naman pala timeline ng Lord para sayo. Enjoy every moment with the presence of God 🙌❤️
This vlog enlightens me. From a career woman to a full time mom. Doing all the house chores and taking care of my toddler the whole day is so tiring. Na realized ko din na physically I'm tired but I love doing it and that is my joy. Minsan kc gusto ko gawin at matapos lahat in a day na akala ko si superwoman ako. Thanks for the reminder sis💖
Very timely and indeed a must. Thank you Ate Rica for being an instrument of God ❤
Totally agree with everything u shared Ms Rica. Indeed, rest is essential part of self-care & healing whether physically, spiritually & mentally. We only have one body/soul so better take care of it by taking regular rest.
why am I crying? Thank you for this vlog Ms Rica
Through this vlog, I've realized that this is what I need most. Thanks, Ms. Rica. gosh! my fav 🥺🥰
It is my rest day today.. and this is the message I got from the Lord... The meaning of REST.
Grabeee! My heart po! Naiiyak ako. Tama nga naman. ❤️ God allows us to rest. Waaaah. Thank you for this reminder Ms Rica. ❤️
Can't help but to share this to my fellow teachers.. we need to rest.. we are all burned out.. 😫 thanks much mam rica! 🙏❤️ More powers to u!!! And please continue to inspire many..
