I cannot tell you how often I come on here to write a post and I think, “I have to get better at being diligent about posting blogs more often.” I have the hope of getting one on here weekly, but I’m starting to realize I can’t do everything at once, as much as I may wish to be able to do that. (Man, that would be perfect, but not what God intended me to be.)
I have to be okay with being human and accept that as much as I want my house’s renovations to be done… I don’t have the funds and time to do it all. I want to be able to have a clean house every day and not have to try and play catch-up on the weekends. I love my dogs, and I want to be able to take them for walks on the weekends and take them to dog parks. And I would absolutely love to have the time and energy to do the creative things I used to love.
I tell my mom everything, because she is my best friend. She tells me I have to learn to prioritize, and to create small goals to achieve the big picture. So as of this past week, I have been trying to implement that into my life… and while I see a small improvement, I know I have a long ways to go still. There is a verse I have been thinking a lot about lately, and I’ll attach it below. Philippians 4:11-13
Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
