If the pace and the push, the noise and the crowds are gettingto you,its time to stop the nonsence and find a place of solace to refresh you spirit.

Delberately say "NO" more ofter. this will leave you room for you to slow down, get alone,pour out your over-burdened heart and admit your desperate need for inner refreshment.

the good news is god will hear and He will help. The bad news is this:if you wait for someone else to bring about a change things only deteriorate.

All of us can testify, God does not speak to the hurried, worried of mind. It takes time alone with Him and His Word before we can expect spiritual strength to recover.

Great post, my friend.  One of my favorite songs is "You Raise Me Up" recorded by Selah and there is a line in the song that refers to "waiting in peace and quietness until You come to me."  We must be in this state of mind to hear our Father's words to us.  May God Bless.  Jan
