Busy-ness

This week I have been busy.

Work had me working on multiple projects at once. My church is having an anniversary and I am in charge of creating a video. I am going to Transplant Games in Australia in Aug and have to plan for that. Just right now, I am taking a look at the courses I need to take for Mac Div. None of the courses, I need I can take as I have work full time.

This is not include two weeks of training I have left before Half Ironman Peterborough.

Today after work, my mind was numb. I was so busy and tired I didn’t have time to think. I was planning to go for a bike ride. I ditched that and ended up praying and taking a nap.

It is very much easy to get distracted with busy-ness. Fast pace life. Things start to fly around. Relationships seem to be less important. As often, I need to stop and focus on where my hopes lie on. Not on physical things as they fade and rust away.

Out on the road the Sanctuary stretches and is full of Creator’s grace and beauty. Just looking the sun racing across the sky, I am already in awe of His Glory.

When Your Wife’s Calling Is Bigger Than Yours: A Christian Husband Reflects

What happens when a husband feels like his wife’s calling or career is bigger than his own? Many Christian couples quietly wrestle with this question, especially as they seek to understand the biblical roles of husband and wife. Recently, a friend asked me a question about marriage, work, and calling.
