My friend gave me a daily calendar last year. I have been pondering a lot of the recent days, and need to take them to heart.

God rested after six days of work, and the world didn't collapse. What makes us think it will if we do?
I have been busy, very busy. I seem to be meeting myself coming and going some days. Some of the things I am busy with are my passion, some aren't. Some days are busy helping others, which is good as long as I keep a balance about it and don't let it consume me, and my worries. I have to remember to pause on purpose. Easier to type than to do! I am going to try hard to pause on purpose, and rest my mind as well as my body this coming weekend. How about you? Do you need to pause on purpose??
