Light.  Dark.  Day.  Night.  Ebb.  Flow.  Work.  Rest. 6 days on.  1 day off.

It’s hard to miss God’s intention for His creation, isn’t it?  From the very first day a cosmic rhythm was strummed by God.  The reverberations were meant to infiltrate our lives.  Unfortunately, Rhythm & Rest are two of God’s gifts that we have chosen to  ignore.  We ignore them for one simple reason – we don’t trust them.  We don’t believe they will really meet our desires as much as our accomplishments will.  So…we bury ourselves, refuse to comply with God’s gifts, and then sink into the mire of life.  Maybe it’s time for something different.  Maybe it’s time to turn the noise of our lives into music.  Rhythm and Rest can help us do that. They are gifts from God to help us deal with our desire for less CHAOS  Let’s get started.

If you missed the message on Rhythm & Rest, you can listen to it here.  Either way, I encourage you to watch a short addendum to the message that I’ve posted to YouTube:

Blessings on your journey towards better Health, better Community and more Happiness.  I leave with you with another thought from Mark Buchanan:

“When we get to busy, everything becomes either a trudge or a scramble, the doldrums or sheer mayhem. We get bored with the familiar, threatened by the unfamiliar. Our capacity for both steadfastness and adventure shrivels. We just want to be left alone… When we stop caring about the things we care about – that’s a signal we’re too busy. We have let ourselves be consumed by the things that feed the ego but starve the soul.”
