Being busy is a good, but too much can be bad. Recently I have had so much work to do that I am overwhelmed and feel like I cannot get any of it done. It is good that I am busy, but bad because each task I have to, I feel like it only gets part of my attention.
I have deadlines that I am supposed to meet, but will be unable for some of them. So today I contacted the person and told them that the one project they wanted done by next Thursday would not be done until the first week of November. It will be late but not too much. They were ok with the fact that it was going to be late, but that is not always the case.
Now think about God, He knows what is in everyone’s heart, He know what everyone will do before they do it, He knows the number of hairs on each person head, and He is trying to communicate with everyone so they will be part of His family in Heaven. Yet He is never overwhelmed.
So what is my point? Well when you are feeling overwhelmed, take a deep breath and do what you can do. Ask the Lord for help in reducing your anxiety, because most of use will have some. Ask the Lord to give you the physical and mental energy to get the tasks done. Do your best and leave the rest to God. He wants you to come to Him for help and this may be the way He is trying to reach you.
