Be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. — Psalm 27:14
“What will we do with all our spare time?” That thought was at the heart of an essay published in 1930 by the economist John Maynard Keynes. In it, Keynes proposed that within a hundred years, technological and economic advances would bring humans to a point where we would work only three hours a day and fifteen hours a week.
It’s been more than ninety years since Keynes published his famous essay. But technology, instead of creating more leisure, has made us busier than ever. Our days are full, and while everyday tasks like travel and meal preparation take less time, we’re still in a hurry. One striking incident from David’s life shows us how to stay steady in life’s rush. When he was fleeing King Saul , he asked the king of Moab, “Would you let my father and mother come and stay with you until I learn what God will do for me?” . David had his hands full. He was trying to escape Saul’s murderous pursuits and also provide for his family. But even in his hurry, he took the time to wait on God. When life’s frenetic pace sweeps us along, we can trust the One who can keep us in His peace . David’s words sum up the matter well: “Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord” .In what ways can you wait on God even when life’s busy? Where do you need His help to trust Him today? You are my calm in every rush, Father. Thank You for giving me Your peace as I continue to trust You.Empower yourself!
