Have you ever had an "oops"? I saw an "oops" this morning after the Lord refreshed my memory about this blog. I once told a friend of mine that I needed one more day in my week but she lovingly replied "but you will just fill that day up too". Ouch. She knew me well and it was a true statement about my life. Over-commit, over- schedule, over-worked, whatever you call it, it is what it is - a boundary issue.
It is so easy for other's boundaries to creep into our fence line isn't it? As Christians we so often feel guilty if we say the word "no". We feel like we let people down and even let God down but God is the one who gives us boundaries to protect unwanted stuff to rob us of out time; Seek His kingdom first (Matt. 6:33) and many others in His word. Boundaries protect, boundaries also prevent. Inventorying our time is something we must do on a regular basis. What are some time robbers in your life? I too must do an inventory of some time robbers that need to go so I don't wake up one day and suddenly realize I haven't done my blog since May 18th!
So friends, it is inventory day today. :)
I pray that you too take some time today and inventory, locate, isolate and say bye, bye!!
Blessings and boundaries,
Marta
