The admonition to organize and prepare is as relevant now as when it was written 180 years ago. But as simple and essential as it seems, it's definitely easier said than done. I think it's because no matter how much we have tried, and every way we have worked to get things done, there seems to be ever so much left undone.
It has been one thing to prepare to fly to China, quite another to prepare to meet our little girl, and quite another to have it all happen around Christmas.
The problem is , that I suffer from Everythingitis -- where Everything seems important. But if everything is important, and all prioritized the same, essentially, nothing is important. A little of this and a little of that gets done but, no matter how much I would like it to be true, I can't quite finish it all.
But perhaps that's how it is supposed to be -- always leaving a little left to strive for as we work to learn and discern the things that are truly needful.
In the end, we have worked hard, prayed hard, and done our very best and, ready or not,
Here We Go!!
