Being so busy is not important. Being continuously busy, ah that's an issue. I won't say it's hard labor. I don't move boulders or carry 2X4's on my back. But I do supervise and am expected to have answers. And I come home and am expected to have answers. And guess what? Many times I don't. Some things are definite violations of regulations and directives and then decisions are easy. But some times even when looking things up there are grey areas. And guess who bears the brunt of decisions... I am responsible for whatever decision I make.... even if I didn't cause the situation. Or I come in the middle of the situation.
All of us have responsibilities to take. Even if the decisions we make are not reflective of what we can in fact do. We take responsibilities, I have responsibilities for my job, my employees, my home life, and what self-control I exhibit. That self-control comes from God, it is a fruit of the Spirit. How do I partake of it? Prayer consistently, when I am tired, when I am sad, when I am hurting, prayer that God endows me with the strength to hold it together because quite frankly I cannot do it on my own.
