Better

We always want to find the better way. 
The Word tells us that a handful in quietness is better than full hands with toil and grasping. 
What does that mean exactly? 
We can fight and push and strive in an attempt to fill both of our hands all the time, much of the time grasping at that which wasn’t even intended for us. 
Or we can be accepting of the one hand that has what we need and is meant for us and skip the toil and the grasping and live with much more peace.
Remembering as well, when both hands are full, there is no free hand to accept the new thing God sends for us.
Get into His presence, ask for His guidance and direction and reach out for what He has for you. 
But leave the rest. 
And stop striving. 
This isn’t a race or a competition. 
It is a lifelong relationship.
