At this time last year I was so messed up. I was having the most difficult time handling a 40+ hour job, a family of 4, leading a ministry team, a church campus, and bible school once a week not including homework, oh yeah and I led a bible study too. I don't get sick too often but in early Feb of 08 I got the sickest that I've ever gotten in my whole life. My body literally shutdown from everything. This morning I thought about that day that I went into the doctor and they ended up putting me on two IV drips. Even up until the point when the doctor threatened hospitalization I still was in denial of how bad I really was.
I haven't really slowed down much, in a way I've added more to my plate. So what's changed, how come I'm doing better? 1) I know my limitations now 2) I know what recharges me 3) I keep what recharges me consistent.
Journaling and prayer charge me up. Thinking charges me up. Blogging charges me up. Worship charges me up. Reading charges me up. Family time absolutely charges me up. Counsel charges me up. Fellowship charges me up.
I treat my life like my cell phone, it needs to be charged daily.
