He is asking you to walk at his pace and in his peace. Battling lies with the truth:Lie: “My value = my productivity.”Truth: Your identity is received, not achieved (John 1:12; Ephesians 2:8–10).Lie: “If I don’t do it, it won’t get done.”Truth: God is the primary Worker; we join Him (Psalm 127:1–2).Lie: “Hurry is holy because it’s for church/family.”Truth: Love requires unhurried presence (1 Corinthians 13:4; Dallas Willard: “Ruthlessly eliminate hurry”).Lie: “Attention is cheap; I can multitask my soul.”Truth: We become what we behold (2 Corinthians 3:18)Lie: “Rest comes after I finish everything.”Truth: Sabbath is a gift that enables good work (Genesis 2:2–3; Mark 2:27).Scripture References: Mary and Martha - Luke 10: 38-42Number our days- Pealm 90:12Unforced Rythms of grace - Matt 11:28-30Margin as Ministry- Mark 5:21-23*Recommended resource- Present over Perfect- book by Shauna Neiquist _ _Connect with us through instagram @sillysheeppodcast_ _Reach out with any questions or topic suggestions by email [email protected].
