Standing on the Promises

This week on Tea with Liya, I'm playing a hymn called "Standing on the Promises." The song reminds us to have a strong faith and not to worry about what might happen - a message to remember as we move into the second half of October. I hope you enjoy listening to this song!

On most days, we're doing less standing and more running. Life really does get busy sometimes.

All those cars are slowing each other down and generating pollution. We really need a better system - maybe you'll come up with the idea! Image by pixaoppa from Pixabay

Perhaps you feel inspired to tackle those pressing tasks 24 hours a day, 7 days a week - but here's the truth: you're not going to feel that way forever.

Of course there are things that need to be done, and I am in no way telling you that you should make up excuses not to do them. However, when we're busy for all our waking hours, we miss out on blessings like spending time with our families.

For that reason, I hope you've had an opportunity to celebrate and take a break over the past weekend. You don't want to spend your whole life dreading Mondays and looking forward to Fridays, but it's always good to take one day out of the week for some time to rest.

Another thing you can do on those days is ... you know what I'm about to say .... keep filling your teacup with music!
