I sometimes find myself trying to get blood from the proverbial turnip - just to make sure the world keeps right on turning - because of course if I didn't keep the world spinning, who would?
I don't know why I worry so.
One might be inclined to think that I was not fully aware of He Who holds my tomorrows.
I am keenly aware.
I just worry that I will be found not doing my part. So I try and try with all my might to make things happen. Sometimes in vain. Sometimes unnecessarily.
I would hate to think that I could have done something better or differently after all the effort that goes into each day.
I feel that I am stretching to near my breaking point - and then I get upset because I have a breaking point.

You keep my world turning, baby. Please don't stop. =)
friend, give yourself a break! things will work out. you do WAY too much. let Him take care of you.
Breathe in....breathe out...
And repeat.
Believe me, that's not supposed to be condescending in any way, shape, or form. Sometimes I literally have to remind myself to just keep breathing...it's truly the only thing I CAN control!! :}
Can anyone say, "perfectionist"? If you are not doing enough, I'm even more of a slacker than I thought. You really do need to chill. You need a relaxing afternoon with a friend. That's my suggestion. I know the perfect gal, too.
Ang, you are about the goldest person I know! God made you that way. He understands. It takes people like you to keep everyone else on track!
you are really quite the superwoman, in my opinion. you get 80 million things done in a day. my day passes and i've 1.) managed to keep children fed, 2.) purchased a thing or two on ebay plus checked my email 30,000 times and 3.) watered and gazed at my plants 2 or 3 times.
hmmm. something is missing in that list. maybe angela, the woman who keeps the world turning, can tell me what it is.
:)
seriously, you, my friend, will never be accused of not doing your part. and, if by some strange happenstance, you are doing the WRONG thing for your part, you will be rewarded for doing something. ANYTHING. so much. with such a sweet, sincere heart.
you're doing a wonderful job.
everybody but God has a breaking point. it doesn't make you weak. it forces you to collapse into the arms of the One who never breaks. and to do that, my dear, makes you strong.
