I struggle with this. I sometimes feel like I'm wasting time by just being still but yet it's what God wants me to do. This was a great post for me tonight.Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08751406235805767248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-47208191349758828912010-01-27T20:40:59.332-06:002010-01-27T20:40:59.332-06:00This is beautiful...thanks so much.This is beautiful...thanks so much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-81803038440112786702010-01-27T19:30:27.423-06:002010-01-27T19:30:27.423-06:00Deidra,

The offer appeals to me, but I know the answer is I’m supposed to be satisfied with the time God gives me. Contentment with time: always a struggle for me.<br /><br />Melanie F.,<br />Welcome! Thanks for leaving your sweet comment. Saying a prayer for your peace right now…<br /><br />Denise,<br />I can only imagine how many irons you have in the fire right now. Praying for the great work you’re about to embark on. And thanking God that we got to know you and your sweet family.<br /><br />All,<br />Looks like many of us need our open space. May we recognize it as God gives it to us, and use it well for his glory.Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-66151287125187667882010-01-27T18:44:55.610-06:002010-01-27T18:44:55.610-06:00Great post, Lisa!

I need emotional margins more than physical margins and for sure spiritual margins more than emotional ones. Thanks for the reminder.

I often refer to "8 ways to stop worrying" as I struggle to find peace with our current situation. Anyway, today's entry really spoke to me too and I'm going to repeat your prayer. Thank you for the ways you encourage my faith walk.

I find it hard when life won't allow that, and have to ask God for great grace. I believe this "need" is the weakness that goes with the strength of being a person who has a tender heart and sensitive spirit.elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06572872315082254364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-59029705972558729902010-01-27T11:33:51.141-06:002010-01-27T11:33:51.141-06:00Earlier today I took a quiz.
