I was watching a DVD called "Designed For Success" and the speaker mentioned something about in-boxes that I have never considered before. Are you ready for this great enlightenment?
An in-box isn't supposed to be empty.
If it is empty you are out of a job!
However, an in-box isn't supposed to be a mountainous pile of paper either...
But I started to ask myself "If I don't work in the corporate world, what is my in box?"
And I discovered what the homemaker's equivalent to the in box is....the laundry pile.
It is never, EVER finished.
But rather than grumble and complain about that, I am going to remember this...if it were empty, I would be out of a job...there would be no beloved family members creating dirty laundry.
How sad would that be!
So I am going to find purpose and joy, even in the piles of dirty laundry.
Excuse me while I go process some things in my "in-box"...

So cute!
Makes me think of this...where no oxen are, the crib is clean.
My Mom reminded me of that Scripture years ago. Oh...I think it ends (really should check...)..but there is much strength because of the oxen...or something like that...
You get the point?
What a wonderful outlook! Thanks. I really needed that:)
