on hurrying

"The less we are certain of the purpose of living, the more we hurry to 'kill' time.  Whoever loses his way always drives faster.

Holy people never hurry; 

their vision of timelessness gives them time. 'They who have faith do not hurry,' says the Old Testament prophet tells us."

Simple Truths, Fulton Sheen

I am 'thinking life through with Fulton Sheen' as the subtitle suggests, thanks to my friend Wesley Anne. This is my thought for the day.  

Hurry, hurry has no blessing as the saying goes.

One thought on “on hurrying

  1. I am trying to slow down, especially while my kids are so little, why does life want to rush us sometimes? Speaking of rush, thank you so much for your prayers for my husband’s job. After months of not even being considered for interviews, he got 3 job offers in one day, including the one in Holyoke, he flies out to Denver and makes the 2 1/2 hour drive tomorrow to check the area out and possibly sign contracts. (They did not want a formal acceptance until he had visited the area.) We are excited and nervous since he’s never lived anywhere but here and I’ve been a east-coaster my entire life plus the move would be in a few weeks for him with the kids and I to follow later. I know you know that struggle. In the midst of slowing down, life is speeding back up again!
