This lie is detrimental to us because we, as business owners know we can do what we want to do, BUT we will never have it all. And, we can't do it all. At some point, we're going to have to be content with what we have. I love the verse in 1 Timothy 6:6-11 that talks about contentment be...

Biblical rest is more than just sleeping. We as physical beings need that rest. However, we also need Jesus. Bottom line, that is how we are going to find rest.  "You'll never be able to fully rest until you're aligned with God." So what does that mean?
