First day back at work today since returning from our four day break in Auckland. Well not really a break. I was busy playing photographer for 3 days while my family had a break. It was such a blessing to be given the opportunity to photograph 8 beautiful families. Check out my photo blog for the pics www.photographybyleonegrace.blogspot.com
So now I'm back home and trying to get my mind, spirit and body back into gear. I have assignments due in a couple of weeks and I want to break the old habits and get my assignments in early. Work is full-on so am trying to work out where I can put in extra hours but can't see where at the moment. Our church is preparing for the Easter National conference. It is such a huge task but I know we can get through it.
So what's my focus for this week?? My health has taken a major back seat for some time now. I'm talking with Dan and our cousin about why I always seem to put myself last. hmmmm...I look up at my shelf and the title of one of my books is staring at me in the face.."You Were Made for More"....
I am made for more! I am made for so much more than WHAT people give me and WHERE people put me. But at the moment with my health, I'm not believing that statement. Unconsciously I'm not believing that my health is made for more! I do know that by taking care of my body I can do so much more with it especially in Ministry, but at times it feels like such an effort. But I know it is an effort that is worth it. Especially after what I've been through last year! So on thought I google some spiritual encouragement to help me...
I read through many scripture but the one that I like the most and is reflective my walk is this..
1 Corinthians 10:31 "So whether you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the Glory of God"...if there was a LIKE button right now.... :)
How that rings so true to my spirit right now.....in everything that I do....this is what I will have going through my mind as I prepare to organise myself for the week around school, work, family, church, HEALTH!!!
Stay blessed.....
