rest. work. rest.
Rhythms of Grace
matthew 11:28-30 (MSG)

"Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion?
Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life.
I'll show you how to take a real rest.
Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it.
Learn the unforced rhythms of grace.
I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you.
Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly."

it's a lot. and it repeats again the week after.

but the miracle is, I only get the anxiety/panic for a couple seconds. well it comes back when people ask me what i have to do this week. Well i'm panicking because i'm thinking of how to phrase my to-do list to you so you'd understand. Not because i'm worried i won't finish. because i have to finish, its not a choice.
maybe this is part of His grace? If i get stressed i cry. and crying wastes valuable working time. so in order to get things done quickly, i don't get stressed or anxious. I'll get it when i physically can not be siting down and working.

That said, this week i had to turn down a dinner meeting with a good friend. I said to her before that God gives me time, and I'll have time for dinner if i work hard and effectively throughout the week.

that didn't happen and i feel really bad for turning her down. But if i didn't, I won't be sleeping for a while.

That's why i'm writing it here. because i need Him to tell me its ok. maybe it's not? i don't know. But i'm trying..
trying to understand what i am doing wrong?
why don't i have time for dinner?!
