Too Tired to Think

Have you ever had your calendar overbooked?  Have you worked hard but never see the bottom of the stack of papers?  Recently, there are times I get too tired to think and would like to vegetate but the only thing that happens is I go home and fall asleep.  I've heard people say, "it's emotional, it's physical, it's the economy, it's Satan's way of discouraging, or it's the success of a business."

One thing I realized is that when I am too tired to think, I have to rely on the Lord to take the wheel and drive my life.  I can not do it on my own because I would be in the hospital quickly.  Even though I have 90 hours of work to do in the next 48 hours, I still spend an hour each day of listening to the Lord and talking with him.

You may say, "That's a waste of time"  but it is the best part of each day.  Believe it or not, I rely on the Lord to help me focus on what it the most important things that must get done. 

Right now multitasking has a whole new meaning since one phone call can change the whole plan for the day or week.  I refuse to complain about the business possibilities and thank the Lord each day for another day to watch the Lord work. 

My suggestion to you is that when you are too tired to think, take some time each day and give it to the Lord.  Then watch Him work to give you clear direction that does not require you to think but to follow in the path He lays out. 

Today, I am just following the path laid out for today. The Lord can take care of tomorrow as I am too tired to think about it.  How about you?
