Finding That Daily Balance

Do you ever feel overwhelmed by all the tasks you have to do on a daily or weekly basis?

At times we are so caught up with our busy schedules that we often find ourselves lacking fulfillment in our lives & feeling depleted because we are rushing from one place to another. Knowing how to find balance in our families, careers & relationships is the secret to finding contentment.

You may be wondering how the heck we get there right?! First & foremost, we need to become mindful of how we are spending our time, making sure we prioritize what is most important & learning to say no to all the distractions. Can I encourage you to start creating some quiet time for yourself? Even if it's just 10 mins a day where you turn off your electronics & allow the silence to drown out your thoughts. Friends, it is in the moments when I sit quietly that clarity comes for me. I hope you will make it a priority in your own life too.

Philippians 4:13

I can do everything through him who gives me strength.

Often times people have asked me how can I possibly get everything done, but I have found when I keep God front & center it's pretty simple, but when I don't, that is when I find myself becoming anxious. The questions I try to ask myself every day is, if what I am doing is bringing glory to God. Am I allowing him to use me for his greater purpose? If not, than I know I am focusing on the distractions too much & I need to make changes.

Philippians 4:9

Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me - put into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

I'm curious to know what your daily rituals are & what your secret is to finding balance in your own life? I hope you'll share your thoughts!

Wishing you a balanced day!
