God has given every believer the gift of abundant life – that is, the potential for abundant life – but it is up to us to exercise the spiritual disciplines that will make it a reality in our life. For me, that means practicing the rhythm of life – that delicate balance between work, rest, worship and play. Let me ignore the rhythm God has woven into the very fabric of creation and my life soon loses its spiritual and emotional vitality.

“Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.”

— Isaiah 40:31

Lord Jesus, deliver us from our frantic busyness and teach us to live in rhythm with You. In Your holy name we pray. Amen.
