Knowing 2

 I used to think I wasn’t worth much as a Christian if I wasn’t busy for the Lord. I ‘should’ be involved in church leadership, be at most church events, reach Sunday School, and on it goes. But Psalm 46 is hard to practice if I’m too busy. Silence and solitude is needed in our cluttered culture. I can’t listen to Hos word, nor experience much of a relationship with Him if I’m creating more chaos for myself. 

“I don’t want to live by default. I want to walk into rooms with presence and on purpose, aware of people for God’s sake rather than for my sake.” – Emily P Freeman
