“Eat what you can, can what you
can't.” A phrase often used by my dad in response to my young self
protesting, “I'm full.” This was used to encourage me to take
take a few more bites and not waste food. And then, left overs were
to be safely stored.
I often apply the same principle now to
life when things get a bit hectic and I just don't feel like I'm
going to cope with the days “to do list”. What can I handle now
and what can't I? I often find in this mix that unintentionally
reading the word (which I love to do dearly) just slips by for pure
lack of time.
It really helps then to have access to
the bible in every place possible. Hard copy, application on my cell
phone and even another for my laptop. Even when you are rushed, I'd
encourage you again to just find a way to fit a little scripture
reading in. Even a short piece can give your soul plenty soul and
spirit food to chew on for the rest of the day.
