As I head into 2015, I realize that I feel very unaccomplished. I am not the head of my company, leading a youth ministry, nor am I the prayer warrior I anticipated on being. I mean, I read "Circle Maker"... twice!
The fact is, there are NO shortcuts. I really don't desire to be head of the company I work at, I absolutely love doing any youth ministry, and communicating with God is not a duty but a privilege. I could just dive into these shortfalls, work on them day and night, and let them consume me; but I would rather just learn and live.
I want to make this year of REST. You have no idea how funny that is, since my wife and I are just a month or so away from having our 4th child in under 5 years. Rest doesn't seem likely, or even possible. I guess I should use the word TRUST instead. Or RELY. Either way, I am excited to accomplish more by trying to accomplish less, worry less, and rest more.
Here is to a restful year! By the way, read "Circle Maker" if you get a chance.
