do you ever feel like your task list grows while your time and patience shrink? between working, school, ministry, family, life “stuff” (i.e. moving and weddings) and trying to have some margin there is little room left for sanity. i suppose that space and balance has to be my choice. there is always always always more to do. always.
the biggest stressor in my life is me. i have to make the choice to not be a victim. i have to make a choice to honor God with my time by making my time with Him my top priority. at the end of the day, does anything else really matter? no. there will be times when i let people down. if you are one of them (and you probably are), please accept my apologies. i have come to grips with the fact i cannot do everything, and that’s ok.
there is great freedom in knowing that i cannot and will not be able to do it all on my own. by grace we have the strength to seize the day.
“my grace is sufficient for you, for my power is perfected in weakness.” 2 corinthians 12:9
