the spot of blessing

Spirit Daily - Daily spiritual news from around the world

Work hard. Rest enough. Go to no extreme. Eat in a way that agrees with your body. Harbor no passion (but for Him). Remember personal relationships, and make sure being thrifty is balanced with the generous. Be wise, and yet a dove. Be strong, and yet meek. Seek to complete your mission in life but don't run yourself into the ground doing it.

If it seems like time has sped up, ask the Lord to organize your day and slow it down!

To stay at our spot of blessing means paying strict attention to how we regulate our lives -- what we think, how we pray, how we speak, what we expose ourselves to. Evil in any way can throw us off balance -- and cause us to waver from that precious "spot."
