Preparation for my "Day"
When I’m too busy
In some people we regret a well-intentioned but
feverish over-busyness, not completely grounded in the depths of peace,
and wish they would not blur the beauty of their souls by fast motion.
Thomas Kelly in A Testament of devotion.
As you begin to make plans for your Day of Prayer and Vision, you are probably wondering where you are going to find time to fit this into your busy schedule. Most people who are “too busy” tend to feel guilty about taking time away, even if it is to spend time with the Lord!
If you are in a "get it done" mode, perhaps it might be helpful to see what a Day of Prayer and Vision could accomplish.
As you collect resources to take with you, (for instance: Scripture, music / hymns, books, and art). These additional suggestions may be helpful.
Now don't move on without doing two things!
• Commit now to the time and place of your Day of Prayer and Vision.
• Jot down some thoughts - even if it's just a couple - in your Day
of Prayer and Vision journal.
