Dear friends,
I was talking with a friend this week – more like whining really – about how messy my desks are and that I need to get organized. I used to be very organized, even managing five kids and a dog or two. These days things seem to be happening faster than I can keep up with. I tell myself that as soon as I get my home and work offices in order, my closets and drawers organized, and my refrigerator cleaned out, the stress will melt away and all will be well.
My friend explained that when they’re in a similar situation, they use a white board and post-its to make a plan for getting things in order. Breaking things down into smaller tasks can be helpful and I know how satisfying it would be for me to remove post-it notes one by one.
I’m going to give it a try. I have never owned one before and am feeling very energized by the thought that this magic white board might be my new best friend. I’ll put my star word(s) right at the top!
Truth is – even if my desks are messy and the refrigerator is begging for a good cleaning – all WILL be well. Maybe that’s what I need to write on my new white board, just above my star words – ALL WILL BE WELL . . .
And for that I say, thanks be to our good and loving God!
Blessings and peace,
Karen+
