A busy life is not always a meaningful life.
I want to believe that if I am doing something all the time, I am doing something meaningful. But meaning is not measured quantitatively. Meaning arises when we do something significant with the gifts we have been given. A meaningful life is a life filled with quality relationships where one is freed to share one's gifts with other people.
Being busy for the sake of being busy will never help us write meaningful stories with our lives. Rather, meaningful stories are written when we stop and pause, freeing us to hear God's voice once more. Freeing us to hear how God wants us to share our gifts with others.
Are we listening? Or are we to busy?
