Focused

That's what I am today - focused. I feel like I accomplished a lot. There were dishes (washed, dried, and mostly put away -3 times today), three loads of laundry (washed, dried, and folded), entire house vacuumed, bathrooms spot-cleaned, trash taken out, some homeschooling completed, caught up on grading and school paperwork, toys picked up, beds made, dinner cooked (Glen did this), and an SDCH board meeting. Some days I feel like I accomplish a lot more than others. I wonder what makes the difference.

It's my focus. Reading my Bible every day should be a priority in my life; I hate to admit it, however, I do skip days... When I focus my life on Christ, the other things fall into place. Maybe not a neat as I would like them to. Nevertheless, they seem little in comparison to our great God - just as it should be.

Today, my focus was on my time with Him and then the house and kids. I sat down and created a list of things to do and stayed away from the computer until it was after the kids' bedtime. I felt like the Proverbs 31 woman. "She looks well to the ways of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness." (Proverbs 31:27)

So tomorrow holds a new day. I'm heading to Proverbs 31 again and finding a verse to memorize and exemplify in my life....which one will it be?
