It is impossible to do everything people want you to do. You have just enough time to do God's will. If you can't get it all done, it means you're trying to do more than God intended for you to do or, possibly that you're watching too much television. Purpose-driven living leads to a simpler lifestyle and a saner schedule.
So, we've got 4 big things in an 8 day period coming up and are trying to get all the necessary prep done. Leading worship for Peterhead SA Youth Group Retreat in Meigle on Jun 1. Our next Candidates Interview (with the Territorial Candidates Officer) on Jun 3 - homework to do. Catch the Fire on Jun 5. Leading Sunday morning worship at Cowdenbeath SA on Jun 8. Is it too much? Is it just a lot of the good stuff all come in at once? And if it is too much, how do you know which of the God stuff bits you're doing is the bit you need to drop? But then: I'm sat here with copies from Rick Warren's book in my hand and am making notes on them trying to do some prep; the PC is on while I do some techy updates; the TV is on; the laptop has been on with emails/Facebook/Reader open; and now i'm blogging about it all.
Am I too easily distracted?!!?
