COT: Most of us spend too much time on what is urgent and not enough time on what is important.
Steven Covey: To parents don’t spend all your time trying to make copies of yourself rather focusing on loving and doing what is important with your kids. Jesus speaking on anxiety…
Matthew 6:33-34[33] But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.[34] “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted.

A time to tear down and a time to build up.

A time to mourn and a time to dance.

A time to embrace and a time to shun embracing.

A time to keep and a time to throw away.

COT: In a book by Brene Brown, she tells a story about a time when she traveled a lot and her husband was at home many weekends alone handling the kids. One weekend while she was home, the got in a big fight and her husband said weekends were a lot easier when she wasn’t home. After the dust settled, they talked about that, and it turned out that when they were both home, they both had expectations for getting something (work, chores, whatever) done whereas when it was just him, he had no expectations for the weekend because he knew his full attention would be on handling the kids. I learned from that story and now my wife and I talk each Friday about what we each need from the weekend. Maybe it’s a family outing, or some alone time, or space to catch up on work, or whatever and we work together to ensure all the needs of the family are met that weekend. I’m sure it’s saved us from meeting fights and a lot of frustration!
