balance

"Better one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere." (Ps. 84:11)

It's easy to lose sight of balance in life sometimes, between the demands of work and home and everything in between. It can be hard to remain cognizant of reaching our limits, and knowing when to "retreat" - when to take a step or two back, a deep breath, and a quick reality check.

Some weeks make that harder than others. This has been one of them. When I finally got to the last meeting of the day, I had to pause and just breathe for a minute - and remind myself that there are more important things beyond the walls of that building... that even though there is merit in the work I do, at the end of the day, walking with God today in order to live with him eternally, is most important.

+Peace and good.
