God is [...]sending invitations. Sometimes they seem less compelling
than anything on my to-do list. Why would I want to say yes to the
invitation to rest when I'm already so far behind? Why follow when I
could lead? Why accept invitations to weep or to admit I am wrong or to
wait? Saying yes might slow me down, sabotage my agenda and even undo
who I think I am.
