Reading this while my 2-months-old naps on my lap. I value these still quiet moments long enough for me to cross off a few things on my list, only because I know how exciting it will be to have her wake up again. If all she did was sleep, her nap times would not be that much of value to me.
This is such a beautiful way to remind us that while leisure is a gift, it wouldn't have much value if we never had to work. Thank you so much for taking your time to continue to encourage your readers. I am once again inspired by your writing. I pray that through each season of life, we would not become a gluttony of leisure or an idolizer of work. But that we would be intentional in finding balance and to remember that both can be a form of worship when they are not out of order.
Wow, my friend. Not becoming a "glutton of leisure or an idolizer of work" is so profound. I LOVE how you summarized this article so perfectly in one statement. Leisure is only a gift when it's paired with purposeful work, absolutely. I'm so glad you're allowing the Lord to guide you through this new stage of being a working mom. Always inspired by you!
