I've been listening to this series called "Margin". Really gets you thinking about the rat race that perpetuates itself in American culture. More errands, more stuff, more appointments can ultimately lead to less of everything.

How can you build in more room for slowing down? Areas might include margin in the following areas:

Your daily schedule

Your quiet time with God

Your commute

Your conversation with your spouse and kids

Your physical wellbeing

If you do nothing more today, do this: stop hurrying and slow down. Breathe and pray for the grace to focus on what matters. It just might make all the difference.
