I’ve thought a lot about how Jesus had to get away as often as He could for His own “Great Quiet”, which was often interrupted by 5,000 hungry people or other pressing needs. Oh how He must have cherished precious nothing to prepare for the Everything that was to come.
I should be doing nothing, but I’ve been reading this instead! Very thought-providing! I have been contemplating a great deal the balance between striving and yielding - both gospel principles, but to be kept in equilibrium.

Thanks much, Tyler, for this thoughtful post! Such a fine antidote for our current moment and addictions.
