Do you sometimes feel like there is so much going on in your life that you cannot manage it all? Some things are getting overlooked, forgotten, neglected? Some might conclude, "you have too many irons in the fire."
Sometimes we are tempted to give attention to the most pressing issues and neglect those most precious - our family. A lesson we might learn from the late Ted Kennedy is that he gave priority to keeping in touch with the members of his family no matter how pressing the other issues he was facing.
In the struggle of priorities day by day may God guide us in awareness of our limitations of time and energy so that we reserve an adequate amount for Him, for those for whom we are directly responsible, for our other responsibilities and then for rest of the 'stuff' of life.
Above all, live in grace. God the Son came because we were hopelessly lost in our sinful condition - the fact we don't get it perfect should not surprise us. May we daily see ourselves as having died with Christ on the cross and made alive in our risen Savior. May God the Holy Spirit lead us to do His will.
