Busy

Recently a friend told me that being busy means Being Under Satan's Yoke. Ouch. Although that may not be theologically accurate, it did make perfect sense to me. When I'm busy I tend to make less time for prayer and studying God's word. Being busy sometimes means that I get my priorities all out of whack. I also tend to get stressed when I have a lot on my plate which usually makes me irritable and grumpy towards others. When I'm tired and stressed, I'm physically, emotionally and spiritually vulnerable. It's easy to make rash, unwise and regrettable decisions. Sigh.... never the less, I'm still busy. Hopefully after next weekend I will be less busy. Don't get me wrong, I'm busy doing wonderful things like hanging out with friends, having a Super Bowl Party, planning events for Women's Ministry, beating Kyle at bowling, working, reading, studying... everything except for blogging apparently! However I would definitely enjoy some downtime in the near future. That is exactly why I canceled everything on the agenda for tonight and I am spending the evening at home with my husband. I am going to make some enchiladas and we're watching a movie from Red Box.


By the way, I am still keeping up with memorizing my verses for the Siesta Scripture Memory Team.


My Jan 15th verse was:

"Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen." - Ephesians 4:29


and my Feb 1st verse was:

" Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather in humility, value others above yourselves." - Philippians 2:3



Also I thought I needed to share this with everyone. I was extremely proud of  my football cheese ball I made for our Super Bowl party. You know you like it.


















I hope everyone has a fun and restful weekend!! :)
