Psalms 23:2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
Leonardo da Vinci, who excelled at many things -- as a painter, sculptor, poet, architect, engineer, city planner, scientist, inventor, anatomist, military genius, and philosopher said a wise thing:
"Every now and then go away, have a little relaxation, for when you come back to your work your judgment will be surer, since to remain constantly at work will cause you to lose power of judgment...Go some distance away because then the work appears smaller, and more of it can be taken in at a glance, and lack of harmony or proportion is more readily seen."
Have you found this to be the truth?
It's time to take a rest from all the things that make us weary today -- ministry work included. Let's take some time out with the Lord and get quiet before Him.
Hi, it's me again......this devotional seems so timely, especially with the questions He's put in my path. I do think I've done the right thing for the season, backing out of Recovery into a admin support role and focusing on the counseling and chapel aspects of ministry. Plus, keeping with the pursuit of the Men's leadership training....haven't been accepted yet.
In Christ,
Jim
