Live Lightly
Yesterday I was reminded of how we can let the busyness of life take away moments of joy. It is hard to find a balance between the "doing" and the "being," and it's so easy to give into the pressures to find worth in living in fast forward mode. Think of what we would miss!
I too often try to achieve balance on my own, but I think I'm learning that only God can guide us spiritually on the right path. I wanted to share this with you:
"Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to Me. Get away with Me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly." (The Message version of Matthew 11:28-30's "my yoke is easy and my burden is light.")
Today, I hope you can enjoy simple moments amidst a crazy world.
