Challenges for the Rest of My Days

I expect to wrestle with these challenges the rest of my days, in easy times and harder times:

  • Choosing which voices in my head deserve to be heard (and stifling the whiners)
  • Preventing anger from ruling me
  • Deciding how to allocate my time and energy
  • Doing what needs doing when it needs doing
  • Studying for insights and patterns
  • Writing and teaching as a means of discovery
  • Struggling for joy amid the day to day
  • Self-care – diet, exercise, sleep
  • Praying and praising more than worrying
  • Worshiping in spirit and in truth, loving God will all my mind, heart, and strength, and loving others as God wants me to love them.
