Where God's Word Meets Our Mess
In our culture, we place a lot of emphasis on our calendars—whether they're on our walls, our desks, or our phones. We don’t always evaluate our priorities and decide what should take precedence in our lives. Instead, we rush from one activity to the next. But we don’t often think about how God wants us to spend our time. Perhaps this is because we believe these two major lies about our schedules.
Like every other season of life, you can make this the best or the worst of times. So choose your activities well. Don’t waste a moment. If you do nothing else this summer, learn to lean more on Christ and less on yourself.
Your time, whether spent well or poorly, is a sunk cost. Every moment of the past is a sunk cost. We sometimes pay the price for wasting time—even when we don’t mean to waste it.
The to-do list is never ending. I feel you. There’s always more to do. As soon as you feel satisfied because you finished a big job, you realize there are six more “big jobs” to do. Isn’t every job a big job? Why can’t a task take five minutes instead of five hours? I don’t have the perfect solution to make your life less hectic, but I might have a reason why we’re so busy.
