We are under enormous pressure to produce.
There are bills to pay. Deadlines to meet. Ideas that we needed to have yesterday. And the pressure of living like we do can quick encroach on our spiritual lives.
But spirituality isn’t about doing. Or deadlines. Or continual goals.
It’s about living as God designed us to live. About being.
That’s why God’s name in Hebrew is translated, I Am.
He just is.
And when we take the time just to be, not to succumb to the idols of production and progress, we find ourselves understanding God a little more.
Grow. Move forward. But don’t let those become your goals. Allow God to work through silence. Through pauses. Through the spaces in your life.
I honestly believe it’s that pressure to produce that is affecting Christian lives today. Marriages in particular. Jesus commanded us not to pursue things the way the Pagans do. But to seek Him in those moments and He would give us the right way to accomplish it.
Remember, his yoke is easy[er] his burden is light[er] — Thanks Steven for making me the about this.
