to quote someone else: Mike Yaconelli

"My life at present seems like an impenetrable jungle of responsibilities, a jagged briar patch of relationships, a tangled web of obligations. It feels like I am lost in the darkness of everyone else's needs, silently pursued by a growing crowd of strangers who crave one more piece of me."

Taken from Mike Yaconelli//Collected Writings by Mike Yaconelli

All of us in ministry can feel this way at times. Yaconelli talks about needing to find a clearing. I pray if you feel like this quote that you will find your clearing. May the God of peace be with you and bring you comfort.
