TRY TO SLOW DOWN

"You will not leave in a hurry, running for yourlives. For the Lord will go ahead of you…[and]protect you from behind." Isa 52:12 NLTHave you heard of "hurry sickness"? Those who haveit zoom in and out of lanes in congested traffic; try tobe the first off the plane, even though they must waitforever at baggage claim; honk at you if you don't takeoff like a racehorse when the traffic light turns green;tap their fingers against anything they can find whenthey have to wait; punch the elevator buttonrepeatedly to attempt to move it faster. Thev remindus of hummingbirds. These tiny birds can fly forward,then hover in mid-air going nowhere. Their tiny wingscan move up to seventy-five times each second! Thetrouble is, their average life span is only three yearscompared to an eagle that lives thirty years. What'sthe difference? The eagle has learned to conserve itsenergy by riding the God-given wind currents. Themessage here is simple: When you draw on theindwelling power of the Holy Spirit, you last longer andgo higher than you ever dreamed. One pastor said hewas a "stress-distributing machine" when he wasyounger, and everybody around him felt it. One dayone of his kids said to him, "Daddy, I'll try to hurry upand tell you this." He replied, "It's okay, honey, you canspeak slowly." After a long pause, he had an "aha"moment when his child said. "Then-listen-slowlv!"Deciding to move at a slower pace will definitelyimprove the quality of your life and your relationships."Hurry sickness"Send us Fan MailInstacart - Groceries delivered in as little as 1 hour.Free delivery on your first order over $35.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
