When was the last time you tried to restore life to something that appeared to be on its last leg? Maybe it was a project you started years ago. Maybe a relationship you did not want to release. Or maybe it was simply some left-overs you really did not want to throw away. And you thought you could still find joy in the thing by giving it a little more effort and intentionality. You paid attention to it because it mattered.

Well, here’s some news: you matter too! 

God created you to live… in the moment, filled with joy, and having fun. And sometimes, even though you are doing the thing you love and crushing it, you are not living well. Your life is out of balance. The joy in you is fading. You need your attention.

And, if you are anything like me, what’s missing is the fun. As moms, wives, women in leadership, business owners, and sisters, we notice when the things around us need our care. We see when others aren’t having fun. But we forget to see ourselves. We forget to transition our needs as our seasons of life change. We forget to live a little. 

But it’s time to remember. It’s time to choose balance. It’s time to connect with the girl in you who laughs and plays just because. This episode will provide you with practical tips on how to:

  • Look for what your soul needs
  • Be intentional about balance
  • Initiate what you desire in life
  • Be present in the spaces you choose

Doing too much of anything or holding something too closely, even a good thing, can create an unbalanced life. Too much work… not enough play. Too much play… not enough work. Too much thinking about what is good and pleasing… not enough studying of the Word. Too much studying of the Word… not enough being of earthly good. If there is too much of anything, it means, plain and simple, there is not enough of something else.  

The key is balance.

Life will naturally create the hard. As you walk through the decades of life, make sure you are marking them with something good for you to look back on. You get to choose how you equal it out.

Choose to embrace joy. Choose to live a little. Choose to have fun.

You get to decide what will make you smile.

Choose wisely.
