Weekly Word from the Wisdom Walk
As we dive headlong into the holiday season it is easy to cover the symptoms of being overwhelmed by staying busy. We mistakenly reason if we push just a little harder, we'll feel better. In effect we attempt to solve an inner problem with outside activities.
Though it may seem hard, the thing to do is to take a step back...
We may be feeling out of it because of physical problems, common sleeplessness and exhaustion, or because of the unrealistic expectations we have set for ourselves.
Get to the root cause and attempt a solution. Don't just continue to push. The difficulty with this approach is, it forces us to be bare-naked, honest with ourselves. Hard, but a whole lot better than allowing the negativity of our insides to make an unscheduled appearance on the outside.
Peace and may God's favor rest upon you this season.
