Lord, A new week is beginning... already I feel the rush. Slow me down, Lord. Slow me to the beat of Your heart. I think of Your words that say those who wait on You will run and not grow weary-- and I remember that rest is not about lack of motion but rather moving forward with You so that activity is a blessing not a burden. I will run this week--there is much to do but help me do so in a way that keeps me by Your side. Waiting and working, only You could tie those together. Please do so for me today. Amen.
