Do Less
Achieve more.
The myriad opportunities to act unfold before me like forking paths and tangled branches. What shall I do next? How many sticks can I carry at once?
If I carry them all, yet walk just a few steps, have I shifted the pile?
❖
Lord, let me act in measured ways today, listening for your voice. Let me do less, and achieve more of your will.
– from the mountain
Consider:
Can I follow the path of doing less?
