Peace...Be Still!
Are you noticing how hectic our lives are these days...or is it just me? It seems everything is competively seeking out any empty spots on our life's schedule. It chokes out the times that should be set aside for God and ourselves. We should keep the sabbath holy, whatever day of the week we choose, but even that is getting crowded out with obligations. I've worked from 7:45am - 9:00pm daily since mother's day and I'm starting to feel the results of it. I'm tired. I feel like Forrest Gump after running from coast to coast. I cannot run from responsibilities like a lot of people do. I must keep on keeping on. I will totally halt all activity on Father's day.I'm in search of the "Still Waters" that I used to drink deeply from. I've wandered too deep into the forrests of obligation. It's time to head back to the "quiet." Do you feel this way sometimes? Do you feel like you are expediting your expiration date?

I too have been really busy since March. I don't really understand what's happening, but it's beginning to take its toll on me. I guess I'm just getting older and can't keep up the pace I once did. This day, I pray that God would bless you with peaceful, quiet moments that you can spend with Him. May your energy be renewed and your spirit refreshed, and may you have showers, no downpours, of His grace.
For me, time is beginning to slow down somewhat. I think laying down the GVC and being solely at Rapha has made a huge difference in my life. I am grateful for this respite and am enjoying these moments.
