“Three sermons still need preparation this week, a church member is in the hospital and another family is struggling. He wants to be fully present with his own family, but too often they receive what remains after everyone else has taken their share. By the time he sits down to prepare, much of his emotional and mental energy has already been spent elsewhere. Then his phone buzzes. ‘Pastor, when you get a chance…’” - Lifeway

But the tongue of the wise brings healing.
