"Things which matter the most
must never be at the mercy
of things which matter the least." Goethe
"Though I am always in haste,
I am never in a hurry,
because I never undertake more work
than I can go through with calmness of spirit." John Wesley
Balance is when someone~
- senses a call on his life and says yes even when he feels unqualified
- says no to something he's not called to, even though he might disappoint others
- guards and protects her time with the Lord
- refuses to allow food to become an idol
- gives himself the gift of exercising several times per week
- refuses to succumb to a busied, harried lifestyle
- gives herself (and her children) enough time to get out the door
- pushes himself beyond what's comfortable for the purpose of growth
- is teachable and flexible
- practices self-control
