Do you find yourself spinning too many plates? How do you feel at the end of the day? At the end of the week?
At Grace Fellowship, we have been going through a series entitled "balanced". In this series we have learned that many times we have so many "things" in our lives that call out for our attention. Many times we are not really sure why we do all these things, but we do them anyway. A nice little house. Kids on a nice little soccer team. A nice little boy scout troup. A nice little gymnastic class. A nice little science fair. A nice little country club membership. Pretty soon, it goes from "nice little" to "friggin' killing me you evil horrible big" schedule/life.
So STOP it...
God is calling you to Him...
I give you permission to take a few seconds and create a "To (NOT) Do List"
Pause.
Pray.
Think.
Listen.
What is God asking you to let go of?
What I want you to do is write it down. What is the thing that you need to stop doing???
Write it down, and then put a due date by it (when you will STOP doing this):
Is it too many soccer games? STOP...
Too much overtime/sacrificing family time? STOP...
Trying to keep up with the neighbors? STOP...
I'm fighting with several things now in my life that must be given to God. Trust me, it's hard to do. But we need to. Today.
