The Fun Continues...

Only 5 more days till Monday! That's my motto for the day. This weekend we have ice skating fri. night (jr. high) the bazaar and a turkey dinner (high school) sat. night Not to mention normal Sunday stuff. I can't wait till Monday. It will be so great to relax. This morning is already hectic so I'm feeling the stress and it's only 9:44. Since the phones have been on I've had 5 phone calls and 5 emails in the last 20 min. It's amazing how everything can hit all at once. If I just had the bazaar it would be fine, but with all the other stuff it can be overwhelming. Yet, I'm reminded of the devotional I led this morning on Psalm 121 (crazy how we can teach a lesson, yet not have it sink in to ourselves).
Psalm 121
1 I lift up my eyes to the hills— where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip— he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD watches over you— the LORD is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD will keep you from all harm— he will watch over your life; the LORD will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.

I know I have help, I know I'm not doinug this all alone, and there's no reason for me to be stressed out, because I know where my help comes from. I know God won't let my foot slip (although he does allow the occasional sprained ankle) and I know I will make it through the weekend and have a great time. My prayer is that I and anyone else who feels stressed and busy that we remember this Psalm, and remember that we have help and it comes from God. A great reminder for me, as I plow through my day. Also, I think I finally sleep in my apartment tonight! Only 5 more days till Monday! =)

It must have been nice to live in Jesus' time. No e-mails, no phones, no gadgets for the most part. Lots of travel hours, but not the overload stuff. Yeah, at my job it all comes in bunches. Totally slow to totally crazy in waves. Enjoy your first night in your apartment! And only five days til Monday!
