Yesterday was not bad at all. Nothing particularly GREAT happened and maybe that what was so great about it. I'm trying, ya'll. I really am. I am trying to be normal. I am trying to be sane. I am trying NOT to have ADHD. If I have it...I already know I don't need medication if I just concentrate on the LORD. HE will be my cure. I just have to rely on HIM. I just have to praise HIM. I just have to call on HIM, read the BIBLE, pray, go to church, and do right. HAHAHA...that "do right" part might be the hardest. But, wait...I am not saying I have it! I'm just saying...
Anyhoo, what was I talking about? Oh, yea, yesterday. I really enjoyed myself. I hung out with my wife at the radio station, which is always fun. She is so crazy! I love her. And then hung out with my entire family afterwards. It was fun. We went to the store and laughed and shopped and had a good old fashion family fun time. And Saturday, we went to the LA COUNTY FAIR and then again on Labor Day. Labor Day was the best. I really enjoy being with the family. And the thing is...I always do. I am just trying to work on a balancing act. A lot of times, when I am hanging out with the whole family, I am thinking that I need to get something else done. Hmmm, there is something that needs to be done right now! And therefore, I am not giving my undivided attention to the family. When I am with the fam....I want to be with the fam! Cause when I am. I have a blast. It's just when you are not financially secure, you get to thinking about what you can do every moment of the day to get to be financially secure SO that you can spend time with the family and not think about anything else. Am I making sense to anyone other than myself?
I am trying to walk the tightrope of GOD, family and my career. Some days...shoot, who am I kidding...most days, I fall off. Trying to work all three has me half stepping in all catagories. Is that how you spell catagories? I am still learning how to manage all three. And I want to be successful in all three. Either I am reading the WORD everyday and not spending time with the family and concentrating on my career. Or I am concentrating on my career and not getting into the WORD and not spending time with the family OR I am spending time with the family and NOT talking to GOD or concentrating on my career. How do I do all three successfully? You see what time it is right now, don't you? I got up at 4 in the morning to get a little work done. It is great that I am getting this done, but bad, cause I might be asleep all day and that means NO family time and NO spending time in the prayer. How do I balance all three? Man, if someone has a book out about this...I would love to read it Who am I kidding? Where would I find the time?
Speaking of time, sometimes I wish there were 28 hours in the day. Just a few more hours so that I can do the things I didn't do that day. A few more hours to sleep OR read the Bible OR spend with my wife and kids...just a few more extra hours before we head into the next day...give me a little more time, cause I can't seem to manage in just 24 hours.
Lord, I am here. I said up top that all I need is you to cure me from ADHD (if I have it). So, if I all I need is YOU for that...it must mean that all I need is you for this. You are my this and that. I need you for everything. You are ALMIGHTY GOD, knower and Creator of all things. Please hear my prayer. Please allow me to be successful in FIRST knowing you. Becoming closer to you, loving you, striving to be like you. And then at the same time, please give me time to be with my family...don't allow my daughters growing up thinking that I was always working and NOT spending enough time with them. Please allow me to spend quality time with my wife, so she doesn't feel alone. Allow me to be her husband and her friend. And then, finally, Lord...please allow me to take the necessary steps to take my career to the next level. Allow me to budget time in to do the things that I need to do. Allow me to be discovered the way I want to be discovered and have the tv show or that movie deal, where I don't have to hustle every second of every minute of every day...allow me to provide for my family through this career that you chose for me. Halleluyah. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you. Thank you for this time of work and prayer. Please Lord, allow me NOT to sleep all day so I can spend it with Genesis, Journey and Juren and not be tired.
I know I am asking a lot, Lord. But nothing is too big for my GOD. And plus, I know I might have a few other things to ask for tomorrow. Please hear my prayer. Please...
Bless me indeed and enlarge my terttitory. Keep your hands on me and keep me from my enemies so that I may cause no pain...these and all other wonderful, incredible blessings I ask in your amazing name...Jesus name...Amen.
