YET, i know it is a lie, and that God wants my heart to be for Him, set on Him who is already pleased with me, yet calls me to change- to be able to worship Him better with my time and using it wisely... thank you for sharing your perspective on work and worship, i especially appreciate hearing how it works itself out practically for you. it helps me more than you know. thank you for your suggestions, trisha!

I thought I was the only one that clened that bathroom drawers while my kids took a bath :-) When you mentioned " Yet, sometimes I do it to control my work, so it doesn’t control me. IS that good stewardship that leads to worship OR is that controlling work so I am in control? " I love how you talk about how this can be both. I often viewed this as a black and white issue which leads me to feel badly about my attitude. I really enjoyed reading the practical tips!
