Busy Bees

"I'm tired from my long day."

"I can't wake up early."

"I can't do it because I'm on vacation."

"I have too much studying/homework/work."

The list goes on and on. We are such a busy culture and we often look down upon those who do take breaks (Heaven forbid). We have so much in our personal schedule that it interferes with other things that are important: God and our family. Why is it that real quality time with those we love most is placed below everything else on our list of priorities? How often have you snapped at a loved one because you were in the middle of something? It's just not right.

If you don't have time for God and your family, you're too busy. It's time to cut something out or ask for help in accomplishing your tasks. It is vital not only for your sanity, but also for your soul to slow down and have relationships with people.

Take a break or you will get broken.
