No More Rocks


Does anyone else feel like they over commit to things? Every time I turn around I'm agreeing to doing another committee or event or hosting or lunch...and I think I'm officially worn down. I'm taking a HUGE step for myself (and my family) and praying very hard before I sign up for anything else at this point. One of the women who I rely on for Godly-knowledge taught a bible study lesson on not putting more rocks in your cart than God has instructed for you...otherwise it gets too heavy and you can't even carry the things you are supposed to do (it's longer than that, but you get the idea). So, please don't get your feelings hurt if I say "no" or don't attend something, right now I need to focus on my relationship with my Lord, my husband and my kids. I struggle so hard with not being included in everything so this is a huge challenge for me in a lot of ways. Everyone who looks at my calendar says "whoa"...yeah, I know...I'm going to slow it all down.
