i learned the true meaning of this verse over the past week. i have been slowly killing myself with the speed at which i'm living life; but i read a book recently called Messy Spirituality by mike yanconelli, and he writes,
"Speed damages our souls because living fast consumes every ounce of our energy. Speed has a deafening roar that drowns out the whispering voices of our souls and leaves Jesus as a diminishing speck in the rearview mirror."
needless to say, i'm learning that rest and silence are necessary to live. best of luck to you with everything; let me know how it goes!
..........something I'm not doing such a good job of these days. How about you?
