Remember my post about my daily planning? You can read it here if you've forgotten or haven't read it yet. Today, I realized that it is super important that I have 8 areas that I ask about. I must ask about my home.
This is how it works.
After I have asked about the 7 areas in my life from the previous post, I ask:
“What can I do for my home today?” This morning my answer was clean the bathroom sink.
“What part of my life does that correlate with?” My answer was my inner peace and self-image.
“What thoughts or feelings do I have about the area and task?” For me, I feel frustrated kids haven't been doing it.
“How does that apply to my life?” I kind of did an “Oh crap” moment as I realized that I have been expecting God to fix things for me.
Now that I have that information, I will clean that area and I will look at what I can do about fixing my own inner peace and self-image. God is there to support me and help me when I've done what I can, but it isn't his job to fix the problem. There is much I can do to keep the bathroom counter clean and still allow my kids to have their job. In fact, if I take care of my makeup and hair supplies the kids will find it easier to do their part. How is that perfect in allowing God to do his part?
I invite you to tune into your life by using your home as a magnifying glass. Ask yourself the same questions.
- What can I do for my home today?
- What part of my life does that correlate with?
- What thoughts and feelings do I have about the area and tasks?
- How does that apply to my life?
- As I'm working in my home, what can I do for my life?
What ahas did you get? I'd love to hear in the comments below!
With love from my heart to yours,
Michele
