But still, the search for the right balance in my time and activities is what I'm *so* interested in. I have to say that I think I've gained the most insights from praying about it - God has healped me to slowly see things in another way. We're all different, with different levels of energy, etc. And it's very good to be occupied - we don't want to give in to laziness.<br />On the other hand, we have to remember to sometimes "be still, and know that I am God". <br /><br />I juat wrote down this quote from Ann Voskamp the other day, because I knew I NEEDED it:<br />"Only when we rest do we relinquish our ambitions to be like God."<br /><br />Blessings to you!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12503930255842185609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2940108922457737358.post-68010239679511510782011-07-21T18:25:57.947+10:002011-07-21T18:25:57.947+10:00I am hearing you - I think that feelings like thes...I am hearing you - I think that feelings like these come with knowing that you will soon be leaving. Would you believe that after two years I finally have the colck and a few photos hanging on the walls??? Oh and I have had a massive destash and clean up of the bathroom and under the sink cupboards - LOL. Maybe it is the knowing that I will loose a bedroom when we move. <br />I find that I have had to give myself a day off of the computer at least once a week - it keeps me grounded - blogs and pinterest will still be there another day.Kyliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17600462735290326334noreply@blogger.com
