Take It Easy

It's the end of April. I don't know about you, but this month has been the fastest one ever.

A long time ago, my Type A personality thrived on productivity. Now, it doesn't seem as important. I like to not be busy. Interesting things happen. Valuable relationships develop. Spring brings many demands on property owners - mow the yard, weeds, gardening, not to mention all the repairs and cleaning. And it seems like it all needs to be done yesterday. "Many hands make light work." This year, I'm determined to not be overwhelmed. When those emotions threaten, I let them happen but sort of ignore the tyranny of the immediate. It will get done, in its time. If you find yourself in over your head, perhaps you can find one person to help with one task. You can run to the Lord and ask for a calm spirit, mulitiplication of your time, and a realization of priorities. First things first. Everything else falls into its place. Get on that chaise lounge with some lemonade and give yourself some perspective!
