It's been a way of life for a long time, In fact, I cannot remember living any other way. But it needs to change...somehow.
Honestly, I used to feel some sense of accomplishment in it. Now I find myself more weary and worn because of it.
Multi-tasking. I have embraced it for so very long. Maybe too long. My husband called home from work one evening and asked what I was doing. I was a bit shocked when I heard my own voice count six different tasks that I was pursuing at that very moment. Six tasks...plus talking with my husband...says something about my life. I'm not sure it's a message I prefer.
It is certainly not in my place to criticize anyone else who is multi-tasking. As women, wives, mothers, daughters, sisters, employees, students, volunteers...etc., etc., etc.,...I honestly don't know how we can meet life's challenges and demands without some degree of multi-tasking. But I do know this. I need to create more focus in my life, including my time.
For my time is not only my time. Each moment of life is a precious gift from God. When use of my time decreases time with Him and for Him, something is very wrong. How I spend time should reflect my love, faithfulness and relationship with Him. May it be centered around Him...all the time.♥~thl
