Robertson McQuilkin, former president of Columbia Bible College said, "It's easier to live in a consistent extreme than to live in the center of biblical tension." Yet in that tension is God's best. And so we savor and strive, strive and savor.

As a natural striver, I have to purposely practice remembering all the good, and that God never needs me to overwork, stress, miss the Sabbath, etc.<br />I'm grateful for people in my life that remind me to slow down and savor.<br />Jennifer Hennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11742102451822520705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-317570391879852662017-10-27T08:04:07.582-04:002017-10-27T08:04:07.582-04:00Ms. Lori.

One of my life verses is Philippians 3:14, yet years ago I learned that if I spend all my time "... pressing towards the goal..." I never have the time to live out Psalm 34:8 and savor the journey. God bless for reminding us all how important it is to enjoy the journey of writing, and life.Jimhttp://www.newhopecooper.orgnoreply@blogger.com
