"Balance Is Not Worth The Pursuit."

"Be very active in the day and very monastic at night, because balance is not worth the pursuit." - Hong Teck

I like this one! (If you think beyond the 'surface' meaning of the words, you see that this makes a lot of sense...)

'Cos God didn't intend for us to nervously teeter and totter on a daily tight-rope of sian rules and regulations; He intended us to run fierce and free, going out with joy and being led forth in peace, leaping like the deers, soaring on wings like eagles, running and not growing weary, walking and not becoming faint. To run from city to city, proclaiming good news with beautiful feet, through fire and water, fears and triumphs...

There's a time for everything, a season for every activity under heaven. :)

Because life with God isn't a monotonous plain of plain averages; life with God is an radical range of mountains and valleys, a polyphonic choir of highest joys and deepest sorrows. Life with Christ is never trouble-free... but it is EXCITING! :D
