Trinkets for Gold

Those of the Spirit walk in the Spirit and those of the flesh, the flesh.  (Romans 8:somewhere)

I wonder about this verse.  If I have the Spirit, why do I find myself walking so much in the flesh?  Why do I worry about money, work, relationships and the moral meltdown of our country?

I am surrounded by the Gold of God's kingdom and I focus on the trinkets.

How do I walk in the Spirit?  Perhaps it is less of a "how" and more of a "hey, look at the Gold!"  I want to remember how valuable are the things of God vs. the worries of man.  I choose to celebrate the mastery that God holds over my worries and be available when the Spirit beckons.

Squeezing the Lemon of Time

"The only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once."
Albert Einstein

Had a full schedule yesterday...oops, had to move a big customer to today, now yesterday has a wandering schedule and today has enough work for a week in it. Hmmm. Tomorrow is content, lets drag a small customer from today to tomorrow. Now tomorrow is unhappy, but doable and today probably won't even feel the weight loss but at least I did something about it.

I think this would be a good time to walk away and read to the kids.
