Don’t Want to Lose Control

Category: My Life

I am tired lately. I was just saying to my wife yesterday that I feel like I’m about ready to lose control of something at any minute. I’m doing so much in so many arenas that I can hardly keep track of it all—even with my planner/organizer. New baby, church end of year stuff, every day planned out at work, helping friends with websites, trying to earn money on the side… all adds up to a lot of work and nothing gets the attention it deserves.

Don’t get tired of doing what is good. Don’t get discouraged and give up, for we will reap a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time.

Galatians 6:5

This sign hangs in the office of Dr. Bruce Fong, President of Michigan Theological Seminary: "Do one thing profoundly, and everything else well"

I think if you know what that one thing is you should be focusing on, the other things come into perspective. Then you can prioritize and hopefully not lose control!

'One Thing' is a cool concept - someone should write a song about it :)
