She said having to do routine things like making beds, doing dishes, etc. was comforting. Doing the next thing helped us to go on living when we sometimes just would sit in sorrow. <br />I have remembered that several times in the last 2 years of trials in my family. YES IT DOES HELP-to do the next thing and go on doing what God has for us to do.<br />Ninananasknollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14139961128588102280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118355.post-10261945302366515652013-04-08T15:10:47.453-07:002013-04-08T15:10:47.453-07:00I was pretty sure my readers would love it!

You have a good idea to have some non-urgent things ready to do when that urge hits. Tomorrow I have a post scheduled on some of the time-management tools that have worked for me. Yours would fit right in!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08733406219995902188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118355.post-56754838707497704192013-04-08T09:03:53.129-07:002013-04-08T09:03:53.129-07:00I've loved that since I first read it via Elis...I've loved that since I first read it via Elisabeth Elliot. Sometimes it helps me to have a list of tasks so when I'm at a "I'm not sure what to do next" stage and tempted to go back to the computer, I can remind myself of some of those tasks that aren't urgent but still need work. That seems to work better for me than a rigid schedule.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
