Busy Busy Busy

Do you ever feel overwelmed?? I mean weekends come and go and are precious to us b/c that's the only time you hang out w/ friends. When you start turning down events or plans made by friends b/c you are too busy w/ other "things", it can be overwelming. Today I felt just like that. Despite what you peopel think, I am not "miss poputlar" This weekend so many different plans were put into motion not necessarily by me. Let's see........there is the Church dediation practice, at the same time, my friend's band SoleDrive was also performing. Since I said I'd help out w/ the practice, I did that tonite. Then saturday, there's beach volleyball in TO, Sound of music festival in Burlington, and movie nite at my house, which, btw, I cancelled. Sunday, is the Church dedication of the new "Educaiton wing" at the same time, I was invited out to a play/Mirvish theatre in TO at the same time. I mean this weekend is pretty booked solid. I wish I was able to all the above but due to the "time" factor, I can't=(...

I spoke to a friend tonite/this morning, about why I feel guilty making these choices. If knowing what I know now, and going back in time to change history, I think my choice would be different. For sure, it wouldn't be the right choice...and I'd feel guilty b/c I chose to do other things then what I'm doing right now...focusing on God's work. My friend explained 2 me that it is normal to feel guilty b/c I want to spend time w/ my friends. However, it is just one weekend, and my friends will still be around. God's work should be first in my LIFE. My prayer tonite, as well as my friend for me is that to keep my eye on the ultimate prize/ goal...doing God's work. Let me not lose focus on this...for this is my prayer tonite.
