Is your life too busy?

Psalm 23:2 gives us a powerful picture of God’s care: “He leads me beside still waters.” But in a world defined by constant activity, anxiety, and motion, many of us rarely experience the kind of rest the Shepherd provides.

In this episode of Rod & Staff, Pastor Tony Myers explores what it means for God to lead His people to still waters—and why busyness is not just unhealthy, but can become spiritually dangerous. Sheep cannot drink from chaotic or stagnant water. They need calm, steady, life-giving streams. In the same way, our souls were not designed for nonstop motion.

Through biblical insight and practical examples, this teaching reveals how God, in His mercy, interrupts our busyness and leads us to places of rest, refreshment, and renewal. What we often resist is actually His care.

“Be still and know that I am God.” (Psalm 46:10)
