We can’t deny the busy reality of our lives and the constant pull, almost constant anxiety to be doing, moving, checking things off, on to the next thing, and really seeking to be as productive as possible.

Those aren’t necessarily bad things. There are a lot of things to get done in our families and the daily tasks, let alone the emergencies or the extras, seem to take so much time.

But I think in the midst of the busy, what we often miss is the voice of God. How do we slow down in our productive pause and listen to the voice of Yahweh? We talk about that and more in this Friday's are for Families video.
