Life Transformation

The "not yet done" becomes the tyranny of the urgent that robs us of rest.

Are You Being Robbed of Rest?

By

Are you overwhelmed? Overworked? Feeling overlooked? Balancing the responsibilities of life, especially as a mom, is like carrying out the tasks most CEOs delegate to hundreds of employees. Compounding the pressure we feel is this pure longing to perfectly manage our households and nurture our families well for the glory of God. It’s a good mission! Right? And yet the pursuit of it can make us crazy busy instead of enjoying the journey — a journey that should include soul-filling and body-refueling rest.   Have you noticed how it’s hard to embrace rest when all we can see it what’s…
