Balance
Letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.
Establishing balance in your life means using your gifts, time, and resources to honor God. It also means caring for others and yourself. This practice begins with allowing God to speak to you about what in your life is truly important, to assure you there is time for everything he calls you to do. Jesus, despite his power and the needs of those around him, still took time to rest, pray, and celebrate with friends while working toward what God had planned for him to do. When you try to accomplish too much, you usually fall short and feel unsatisfied. But when you let the Holy Spirit guide your mind and desires, the balance he brings gives you peace of heart and mind.
