Just Relax

I rarely have everything done. There is far more to do in my world that I accomplish. More projects, more ideas, more important time to be spent with people, more fixing and cleaning, more appointments...you get the picture. Since it doesn't seem likely that I will ever get it all done (is that really what I am aiming for anyway?) so I better settle myself with that. Stressing, obsessing, and hurrying seem to be counterproductive activities. When I pray about my burdens I often hear words like these. "I have given you all the time and energy you need to do what I have called you to do. I have never asked for more of you than your best in My strength. Rest in me. Just relax and do what I have called you to do."
