Today I commit to unrush. To make better use of two powerful words : yes and no. To be still and take the time to hear the Spirit inside me whisper. You see it doesn't yell at you.... it doesn't raise it voice or change it's tone to get your attention....it patiently waits until I choose to be quiet, still and humbly listen.
Are you rushing from place to place today? Work, school, kids, activities, commitments, volunteer work, grocery store, errands? On overload to where even if you wanted to be still you couldn't because you have promised others you would love, care and do for them.
We have to make the conscious decision to say NO to some things so we have space to say YES to the best things.
Possibly your life is so full of commitments you have no room for the best of what God has for you. Can I encourage you slow down? Take inventory of your schedule and determine what time you are giving to being still.... really still... to resting... and most importantly to listening to that whisper inside you? It will give you the best directions possible, but in low still tone deep in your spirit where you can only hear in the stillness.
