Hard Words

It is difficult to be thankful for correction,

but when I respond properly - I can be thankful.

It is hard to acknowledge weakness and sin.

I do not always respond as I should,

but when I do - it is GOOD!

Recently, I heard a message on Biblical Standards of Leadership.

While the message emphasized behavior, dress, and entertainment;

the Spirit spoke to me about time, time management, and discipline.

Because my schedule is relatively fluid and I seek to be available for ministry when I can,

I have not found a Monday through Friday schedule to be particularly helpful.

I like to check things off of a list, but my lists were too rigid.

I decided to make a schedule that will allow me to finish my work any time throughout the week.

I have been using it for 2 weeks now, and it seems to be a winner.

I am getting more accomplished and have more urgency to my time.

I am so thankful for the Spirit's working in my life and for messages that He uses to evoke change.

My plan:

A new, more flexible schedule for the week.

Bible reading - daily

Exercise - 6 days a week

Hebrew study - 3 days a week

... etc., etc.,  etc.
