Anyone else feeling overwhelmed?
.
It all piles up.
Deadlines at work make for longer hours and more packed hours.
House "administration"...cleaning, fixing, paying, logging, trimming.
A Sabbath that isn't, because of meetings and trainings in addition to church, itself.
Friends I'm trying to befriend, disciples I'm trying to disciple, and leaders I'm trying to lead.

And e-mails to open, blogs to read...
...and blogs to write.
So what happens?
Mail I used to read gets summarily tossed with catalogs I used to peruse.
Invitations get turned down.
And I get resentful at all those church conferences, meetings, seminars, retreats, orientations, trainings, etc., that keep popping up.
And I stay up too late and am too tired the next day to function well or have a good attitude.
No additional church activities, please!
(But I will sign up for a six-week Flannery O'Connor class at Emory.)
((Now that makes sense.))
