Be Still and Know
Unhealthily driven vs. patiently listening.
Unhealthily driven screams that my future is up to me and what I do. It says that I have to be the best, most efficient, and well liked.
Patiently Listening whispers, be still and know truth. It views each obstacle with clarity, confidence, and humility.
The battle rages, and my heart is torn between serving two masters. Who should I fight for? Who should I oppose?
The answer is an obvious one, but the armor is heavy. It’s not an easy battle, but I know who will win. It’s not a fun battle, but a rewarding one.
Wait patiently. Zoom out. Breathe. Smile.
I know the master of the wind.
