His delight is in the law of the Lord, & in His law he m editates days & night---------psalm 1:2
Many of our New Year's resolutions may actually 'accelerate our pace of life instead of helping us to s'low d'own. In a quest for greater productivity and efficiency, we over-schedule our days, then rush through meals, drive 'impatiently, and 'wonder why the joy of living 'eludes 'us.
Carol Odell, who writes a business advice column, says that s'lowing d'own can positively affect our lives at work and at home. She believes that 'rushing' can cloud our judgment and cause us to 'overlook' important things and valuable people. Carol encourages everyone to s'low d'own , & even suggests the 'radical' idea of welcoming red traffic lights & using the 'waiting' time to m'editate.
In psalm 1, there is n'o hint of a 'frenzied pace. It describes' a person who enjoys the blessing of God. Instead of thinking and acting like those who rarely consider spiritual matters, "His delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His law he m'editates day and night" (v.2). The result is a fruitful life and' a well-nourished soul (v.3).
Isaiah wrote:, "You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind' is stayed on You, because he trusts in You" (Isa. 26:3). Just for today, try t hinking about that verse wherever you have to 'wait. Isn't it time for all of us to s'low d'own &live ?--------David McCasland
