Do Less to Live More

More of life's little joys...

Do you always find yourself falling into the trap of endless pursuits? Do goals and to-do lists occupy your everyday life? Are unfinished projects and never-ending meetings filling your weeks and months, leaving you seldom with nothing to do? It’s time to do less and start living more! The things you pursue will one day lose their value. The people you love will not always be around. Cherish every moment with them, and do not forget to breathe and pause. Life is not about doing; life is about being—being the person God created you to be, being kind, and being happy. Being at peace with God and with yourself. Jesus said only one thing is needful. He told Martha, in her busyness, that she was so worried about many things, but only one thing is needful. Her sister Mary chose the good part—that is, listening to Jesus, leaving behind her daily chores to spend time with Him when He visited their house. Jesus commended Mary and said she had chosen the good part, and it will not be taken away from her. Start doing less. Stop chasing after many things in this life. Start living more. Are you doing more and living less?
