Balance? Take 2, or maybe 3

I was doing pretty good with yoga for about 4 days. Now I’ve been working in the yard. As far as sleep goes, it’s been a bit better, except I got up pretty early this morning. I haven’t been reading yet, but I’m trying to adjust my diet. I feel like I’m trying to change too much too fast. And cutting out foods isn’t good. Limiting the less healthy options is better.

As far as spiritual health? I totally forgot devo this morning. I mean, I got busy with the SSA thing and it completely slipped my mind. That’s terrible! And as I fight this battle, I’m thinking.. is it too much? Am I spread too thin? Maybe I just need to go back to sleep. Start there, then do the next thing, and so on.

The health text I’ve been reading says to try to avoid napping during the day. I think it’s right, but that doesn’t make it easy. Does the “healthy sleep” challenge include that, or is it just another step. And is this health thing what I should be focusing on? I don’t know, but I know God will give me the wisdom I need.

I don’t know what to bring back and what to throw away. Do I return to comics one day? Do I learn guitar? Or do I simply maintain the things I have? I need to improve my Spanish, and it makes more sense to have a few good skills than a bunch of mediocre ones. This is all under the sun.

What I’m thinking about in my relationship with God is.. What if that’s the focus. Didn’t Jesus say,”Seek ye first the kingdom of God and its righteousness, and everything will be added unto you,”

And that changes my whole perspective, or at least it should.

Going with my gut

Don't go looking for it
