Sometimes I am tempted to find meaning in what I do, and I find that this is the clearest path to depression. I know I could do better in my pursuits of excellence and my goals have been sidelined for the time being. I have allowed time stress and pressure to overwhelm me and I now notice that the Bible and prayer have increasingly become rare in my mornings.
I know the solution; it is in meditating upon His Word. I should not kid myself by thinking that being busy fulfills my purpose in life. I must learn to appreciate the slow moments, to just take in the spaces as they come. I know that fatigue and burn out affect mostly those people who don’t stick to their plans and who have a hard time saying no.
So now, back to the youth camp and back to the events of the day. It promises to be a busy day as usual and the challenges it presents must be faced with God.
