On our blog, we’ve talked a lot about the importance of staying consistent with communication. Well, we could have taken a bit of our own medicine seeing that it’s been way too long since our last post! Our apologies.
But there is a takeaway from our long absence. As I was thinking about this “break” in communication it caused me to reflect on the general feeling in our society of “down time”. For many, productivity is of utmost importance. Particularly for leaders, the thought of taking time off or time away for nothing all too important causes guilt, a sense of obligation to be doing something. We are often compelled to start something, finish something, accomplish something. After all, as Christians aren’t we called to be laborers, soldiers, workers? How many times have you been on a vacation only to be thinking about all the things you need to do when you get back (can someone say, “full inbox”)?
But what about that time off, time away to just recharge?
