Weekend Recovery


There is something they don't tell you when you go into the ministry...well there are actually alot of things they don't tell you when you go into the ministry but this morning one thing came to mind. You have to recover from weekends! Weekends belong to naps and cleaning no more. Saturday was spent with Trevor at a youth event and mommy shuffling three kids while recovering from a miild kidney infection. Sunday, a great day at church! Then out to eat with church members (wonderful by the way). We didn't get home till almost 5pm and with the exception of this Sunday, most Sunday nights belong to college small group. I reference all this to say that Mondays for me are about recovery. As I look around I see a disgusting kitchen with a refrigerator full of take out boxes from the weekend and when I wasn't feeling good. I see a messy living room with a vacuum cleaner that isn't picking up for some reason. Dirty bathrooms...don't get me started. After a trip to the grocery store where the amount of groceries gave me a heart attack I am overwhelmed and frankly ready for a nap! Oh well, I take satisfaction in knowing that it is good to serve the Lord and that is more important than the state of my house.
