I have been exploring the topic of being ‘Rested and Pressing on’. This topic fits within the overall theme of Christian Life Balance, which is an area of focus for me.

There will always be things to do and goals to achieve. But we need the required rest as we continue to move forward and achieve.

I recognize that the term ‘balance’ has different meanings in different circles. But when I speak about ‘balance’, I am really referring to an abiding and anchored relationship with God as the foundation of everything we pursue, do and achieve.

Christian Life Balance also includes making intentional decisions and cultivating an environment that invites joy into our lives. It goes beyond feelings but becomes a commitment; because believing the Bible promises give us the guaranteed that Jesus’ sacrifice has provided us with the opportunities for joy to be apart of our daily lives.

So Christian life balance is really about being led by the Holy Spirit through every state of our lives – with all of its uncertainties, with all of its goals and hope and dreams waiting to become realities in our lives.
