Where do you find the time?

It seems these days that there are just not enough hours in My day to get it all done. I sit and read all these wonderful blogs from so many wonderful friends and family and I wonder.

Where do you guys find the time?

Maybe I am missing something.

Maybe I have a misconception of what your lives are truly like. Maybe you are blogging with a sink full of dishes and a love seat covered in unfolded laundry. Books, puzzles, and Legos are covering your family room floor too as you sit and take time for yourself and what is really important.

I am sure it is no surprise to most of you that I am a perfectionist. Oldest Child syndrome what can I say, not my fault I was born first, I'll just have to take that one up with the Man upstairs I suppose. My point in all of that was just this maybe I need to let go of perfect in my sense and grab on to a new perfect in God's sense.

After all what is perfect anyway?

From where I am sitting it is just an other reason for my continual failure; an unatainable standard and expectation of myself.

Oh, how I hate the feeling of needing worldly perfection.

Oh, how I long for allowing God to complete His perfection in me.

  1. I wonder that too. I post my flittering thoughts after the kiddos and husband are in bed, or before they get up in the morning. And yes, dishes are in the sink, and Mt. FoldMe awaits on the couch. But they'll still be there tomorrow...Great to see you guys, by the way...we enjoyed seeing your growing family!
