The Value of an Unhurried Life for Spiritual Transformation

Decluttering life to make room for God's transformation involves embracing a quiet, unhurried inner life. Throughout history, those most alive to God and filled with joy were not characterized by hurry, but rather by slowness and peace. A rule of life is not an additional burden, but a container to guide one in discarding unnecessary activities. Practices that fit into a rule of life include peaceful, patient, and unhurried traits often seen in older individuals who are deeply godly.
