Hey Sistas,
Here are three things you need to know about today's episode.
1: Jerusalem Greer and I have a much needed conversation on the difference between routines to get stuff done and rhythms that give us life. We used Matthew 11:28-30 The Message (MSG) as our guide:
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
2: We're praying for each other in the Shalom Sistas Hangout and Newsletter. Click the links to join and get your prayer on.
3: We have five questions we consider to create shalom in our schedules:
Is this a stress-inducing routine or a life-giving rhythm?
What will bring me into a resting heartbeat?
What will bring wholeness?
Does this rhythm reflect who God made me to be or who I think I should be?
If someone tries to challenge the decisions I make to support my rhythm, can I advocate for it
If someone tries to challenge the decisions I make to support my rhythm, can I advocate for it
