Busyness is not a Spiritual Gift

Nothing robs the peace and joy from a Christian’s life more than constant busyness. That busyness may be veiled as spiritual drive for excellence, some kind of way to work out our salvation. Life can bring about big storms and the waves hit hard if we do not slow down. PSALM 46:10.

Creation

Our God masterfully weaves simplicity with complexity to achieve the beauty and wonder we see all around us in creation. JAMES 1:17.

Our Storms

From our viewpoints, life can seem overwhelming and even out of control, but He who calms the storms of life can bring lasting peace. MARK 4:39.

God’s Barricade

God sometimes positions roadblocks in front of us to make us stop or go in another direction. He is not there to hinder us; He is there to assist us in knowing what way to take. PROVERBS 16:9.

Trials

Nothing is happening to us that is personal or unique: it is occurring in all the rest of the Body of Christ as well. 1 PETER 5:9.
