Have you noticed how busy everyone seems to be? So caught up in striving for success and perfection many “just don’t have time” to prepare or eat a healthy meal, talk to their children or sometimes even sleep.
This can even extend to our spiritual lives. We get so caught up looking for God we forget the divine is within us — as close as the air we breathe. All we have to do is connect.
I believe all this striving and running after success, perfection and even God is the reason for the spiritual sickness we see in this world. When was the last time you took a minute to take a deep breath, sit in stillness, and just be? This is important. This is when we hear from Spirit. It is also why our dreams are so important. Sometimes our sleep is the only time Spirit can reach us.
I know we live in a world where taking time to be still is considered a weakness. People who do this may even be called “lazy.” But taking time to rest our body, mind, and spirit and listen for guidance from Spirit is actually where we find our true strength.
I will leave you with this reminder from the Jewish/Christian Holy Bible.

Love this! Yes, society and busy schedules keep us striving for things and book our calendars up with unnecessary things. It’s good to just be still as you say, that’s when we’ll hear from God. He’s speaking, it’s just that sometimes we’re too busy to listen and when we do, it’s usually too late. This was a good word.
