I first read about selecting a personal verse for the year on MaryBeth Whalen’s blog and though it has taken me some time to find the right verse, its timing is perfect for me as I prepare for another school year and a move into a new home.
I want to do everything and then get frustrated when I cannot.
I take on all manner of tasks, no matter how full my plate already is and snip at Big Daddy when he golfs. It is not his golfing that annoys me, so much as the fact that he has time to golf. But that is really my issue. I am in charge of my time and since I do not prioritize restful periods, I don’t get them. I have only myself to blame.
I would do well to reflect on this verse as I contemplate our upcoming school year and the eventual move. What verse would you do well reflecting upon this year?

Oi! I still haven't picked a verse. But since we're not starting our new year until the very end of September, I still have some more time.
Your verse is great, Karin! I often have to remind myself that although there are many “good” and “worthy” things to do, it might not be the right season in my life for it.
You can't go wrong to trust God in all things– your schedule included. 🙂
LOL about Big Daddy and golf. I love it when David plays golf because it gives him a time to relax and fellowship with friends. Of course, it helps that I can't complain about his friends since he usually golfs with his best bud that is an associate pastor or with other guys from church!
