I came to a freeing conclusion a couple weeks ago. I have spent most of my life serving: my parents, my kids, my husband, on the job. I don't mind serving at all. I have been so well taken care of by my Father while I take care of others. What I had been doing wrong, though, was thinking my worth came in my serving. I have been a woman doing rather than a woman being. And, as a result I had almost served myself into isolation.
Fascinating, isn't it?!
Today, rather than rush around trying to better myself and ease life for others, I am learning, albeit slowly, to be still and comfortable in the silence. It kinda freaks me out - inactivity. What I have learned is that activity does not always breed productivity and (a biggie) I do not know what is right for anyone - aha!!! My God, the One Who created me and every single one of you, knows what is perfect for you and it is best I leave things in His hands.
Today, I will.
