The Balancing Act


Since I have been a mother I have learned more than I ever thought possible in this short amount of time.  Since I’ve been back at work (2 weeks and counting), I have learned one of the most important things to master, is balancing time and attention to my work, my other work, my daughter, my husband, my home (chores), and myself.  If I fail to purposely balance my tasks, something becomes deficient, and then everything is out of whack.  Designating time and attention to myself is of primary importance because I cannot care for anyone else, if I do not first care for myself.  For me I must devote time to my relationship with God first and as I allow Him to be of primary importance I find that I am able to have peace and everything falls into place.  God must be the heaviest weight on the scale in order for me to have success in any area of my life. 

--Matthew 6:33
