Looking For Balance ...

"I find myself struggling to balance the various disciplines - spiritual, physical, mental, etc. When I excel in one area, I fail in another. It is interesting, this life here on earth. We long for perfection, rest and joy, but instead are mired in imperfection, unease, and worry." A quote from a blogger friend which I can relate


I am still struggling to find this thing they call "balance". I still am convince that the scales tips on the things we consider important. And rightfully so, it should tip a bit more towards the things that we are called for to do, the things we are created for, our purpose. But when the scale is screwed, that "balance" is screwed as well. When the criteria to measure the balance in life is not right, if the weighing scale is distorted, the end result is deceitful and life is still unbalanced no matter what the scale says....

Liza, this is me. I pray daily for balance and to have my priorities straight. Please remember me in prayer - my city home has to sell - now that I am settled in my small home in the woods.
