A Season of Simplicity & A New Podcast
After the constant demands of writing books, blogs, podcasts and speaking all over the world, I find myself so very grateful for all that I have seen the Lord do. And to have partnered with Him by faith and see Him work is nothing short of miraculous.
But now, I find myself reevaluating once again. What is most important? What is sustainable for my life? How can I make sure to have time for real people, to be at peace and rest, to be present even amidst the swirl of a busy life? Living life with a plan, on purpose, is what it means to build on the rock—a house that will not fall, that will last through all the storms, a house that gives stability and comfort. That is what I want my story to show every day.
In light of my pondering, I am so very thankful my friend, Emily Ley, my dear friend, has written a book that helps me think through the essential, the things to keep and the things that drain. Look at these chapter titles alone. They have helped me begin to simplify my plan ahead. (I will be sharing more of that I the weeks ahead.) But I thought if it helped me, it might also be of great encouragement to you. Just look at how relevant these are to those of us who live a busy life!
I had the privilege of talking with Emily last week to discuss why we all need to constantly take a step back, to plan what really matters, to invest in the real—in real love, real conversations, real food, real rest, real faith.
I hope you will be greatly inspired by our conversation, but even more, I hope her book will be of great help to you as you seek to live sustainably, peacefully, joyfully.
And we will both be with many of you in Atlanta on Wednesday at Barnes and Noble at a celebration of both of our books. So sorry but the event is sold out, but we can’t wait to see many of you there.
Emily designs beautiful, simple planners that seem to go along with my own personality. You can find all things Emily Ley at Emilyley.com
