Overcommitted? Don't burn out; keep yourselves fueled and aflame. Be alert servants of the Master, cheerfully expectant. Don't quit in hard times; pray all the harder. ROMANS 12:11-12 MSG
Do you have too many things on your to-do list and too few hours in which to do them? If so, it's time to take a long, hard look at the way you're prioritizing your days and your life. The world encourages you to rush full-speed ahead, taking on lots of new commitments, doing many things, but doing few things well. God, on the other hand, encourages you to slow down, to quiet yourself, and to spend time with Him. And you can be sure that God's way is best. How will you organize your life? Will you carve out quiet moments with the Creator? And while you're at it, will you focus your energies and your resources on only the most important tasks on your to-do list? Or will you max out your schedule, leaving much of your most important work undone? Today, slow yourself down and commit more time to God. When you do, you'll be amazed at how the Father can revolutionize your life when you start spending more time with Him. Life is strenuous. See that your clock does not run down. ~Mrs. Charles E. Cowman Taking care of yourself physically really helps emotionally. People who get a lot of sleep, who do the things that relieve stress, can withstand a lot of stress. ~Laura Bush Jesus taught us by example to get out of the rat race and recharge our batteries. ~Barbara Johnson Come, come, come unto Me, / Weary and sore distressed; / Come, come, come unto Me, / Come unto Me and rest. ~Fanny Crosby TODAY'S PRAYER Dear Lord, when I'm tired, give me the wisdom to do the smart thing: give me the wisdom to put my head on my pillow and rest!
