I hear your voices, on Facebook and in direct messages, even in person: you’re pouring out your dear hearts and telling me this message resonates. Too many of us are drowning in good things, instead of choosing the best things.
But what ARE the best things for YOU? How do you know? How do you extract from overcommitment?
These hard questions deserve real answers, and I’ll share what’s worked for me this week. But today, let’s help each other.
Who do you know who is in a prickly season of life? Is there a sister or brother who is hurting? Overwhelmed? Overcommitted?
If you can find room in your heart, I challenge you to help them today. We all have different measures of “room” accessible at this particular moment in time, but it’s almost certain that we could each stop to pray for a neighbor who needs love. Maybe you could manage a quick phone call? A short handwritten note? A tiny bouquet of blooms from your garden? Showing help, love, and encouragement doesn’t have to equal a full day of childcare or a home cooked meal (although it could!).
How can you make a difference today?
When you help others, you obey, and reap bountiful benefits emotionally, spiritually, even physically!
