Juggling Elephants
by Frank Bealer on Feb.24, 2008, under Guest Speakers
When Pastor Larry mentionted that he would be sharing about our work this week, I immediately thought about my journey with God when it comes to work. I have told so many people that the biggest thing that I deal with in my life is balance. How can I possibly juggle my duties as a father, husband, son, pastor, business executive, and child of God?
Well, while it is extremely complicated, I believe that you have to work at a balanced life. And by work, I mean, read, study, and plan to live a balanced life (Doing Life Intentionally).
I entilted this entry juggling elephants because there is a book of the same name that has been a recent eyeopener in my journey toward balance. While it’s not a book based on scripture, it’s thoughts are simple yet profound. We are the ringmaster and our life is a circus (sounds like a pretty good description of my life).
I want to encourage all of you that are trying to make ‘it all’ work to hang in there, get together a plan, and watch God do great things through you.
