Margin refers to the space on the edge of a page where there is no text...... We add so much to our schedule that we have no “margin”, no space for leisure and rest and family and God and health.
Holiness is essentially wholeness—-a life that works. Sin is dysfunction or sickness. The number one spiritual sickness of our day is “hurry sickness.” We are constantly in a hurry because we have overloaded our schedule. When we lack margin in our lives we become tired and lonely and joyless, which seems to invite temptation. We need margin. Margin restores balance and restores our us increasing our capacity for joy. Joy is a bulwark against temptation. Margin and holiness are related to one another in very deep ways.
