July 2025 Week 4
Less is More
OK have an open mind……The following reading is definitely religious in nature, but replace “Me” with your higher power or your deep connection with your inner guide:
“Come away with me for a while. The world, with its nonstop demands, can be put on hold. Most people put ME on hold, rationalizing that someday they will find time to focus on Me. But the longer people push Me into the background of their lives, the harder it is for them to find Me.
You live among people who glorify busyness; they have made time a tyrant that controls their lives. Even those who know Me as Savior tend to march to the tempo of the world. They have bought into the illusion that more is always better: more meetings, more programs, more activity.
I have called you to follow Me on a solitary path, making time alone with Me your highest priority and deepest Joy. It is a pathway largely unappreciated and often despised. However, you have chosen the better thing, which will never be taken away from you. Moreover, as you walk close to Me, I can bless others through you.”
Song of Songs 2:13; Luke 10:42
This has been a great week for me!!! It has been filled with the more…more meetings, more work, more friends, more family, more gatherings which can be overwhelming and depleting. However, with our intention - less is more - I have moved into the energy of embracing all that is in front of me and being present to the fullness. The way I have moved into the “less” overwhelm is that I am super present to what/who is getting my attention on a moment to moment basis and there is “less” thoughts of planning, projecting, trying to do it all. There is such abundance right now in my life that I have no space for any more and so it is serving to simplify my life by making me very present. JOMO to the rest! Not FOMO!!!!
How is your month going? How are you doing with less is more? Let me know!
