"How are you using your time? Search your heart and think about what is important to God. There is a time and a place for everything. With God's wisdom and guidance, you will find the answers."
The above was taken from one of my guided journals. It's funny that I came upon this one b/c this last week I do feel like I have more of a sense of order. As I'm going through my routine I can hear God saying "okay, now do this or don't worry about that." To some that may sound crazy but for those who know me, they know I try to do ever dern thing. I'm learning to do what I can, while always striving to be a little better, and let the rest happen when it happens.
Yesterday evening the boys and I went walking around the neighborhood after dinner and then we colored for a little while (I did a great job on my sailboat, thank you very much). I didn't feel rushed or harried. We just enjoyed our evening--of course, they got on my nerves a couple of times.
Today I need to get in a 25 minute stroll, but I have a committment at lunch. I'm going to get it in this evening (notice I didn't say "try to get it in"). Thank you Lord, for guidance and order and wisdom and time management.
Got my stroll in, but think I was going faster than "stroll" pace. . .I don't think I know how to stroll, even when the boys are with me. It's my mother's fault b/c she walks so fast. I remember I used to huff & puff to keep up with her, made me mad. Pretty soon I'll be able to outwalk her. . .ignore the fact that she's now 50 (LOL!)
