As of late, i've realised , especially as the holidays are here, that there are so many things to do, so many places to go, so many people to meet, and yet so little time to do all of it.
So herein lies the dilemma, what things take priority, especially when two or more things compete for precedence in a single time slot?
Inevitably, i've had to forego stuff that, in an ideal world with limitless time, i'd happily engage in:
Activities in church for example, which due to more pressing commitments for MEET and other cf stuff have had to take a backseat. I'll admit that i feel a little bad that even with the much treasured support that the cell-u-lights are giving me, i'm unable to even appear in their presence very often due to event clashes. Crossover camp, carolling, outings, dinners, all impossibilities due to other stuff. Sigh.
Time with friends as well. Have just had to put off a dinner appointment with some acjc choir friends cos of clashes with other stuff as well. In cases such as these, and more so if the friends involved are pre-believers, then all the more i feel a little uneasy. Could not my time be at least just as fruitfully spent with such friends, even as the Lord may provide opportunities for my friends know more about Him through me?
Also important, time with self and with God. To reflect upon the time gone by, and to draw upon what the Lord may be speaking to me at that particular moment.
Of least importance, but still important nevertheless, exercise. Haven't cycled for months, ran for weeks, swam for days. Nowsaday just feel very gross without at least some token exercise now and then.
If i could have time in a bottle...
