I've come full circle from feeling entirely ineffective and absolutely useless to feeling overwhelmed with the amount of work, planning, and learning that I "need" to do. I think it has something to do with what I
should be doing at the moment. When I'm working, I feel like I'm ineffective and might as well stop. When I'm resting - like today where we took the day to spend with God - I'm obsessed with all of the things that are still on my to-do list. Like getting a table to eat dinner on. Ultimately, I can sit on the couch

and it doesn't matter that much, so being preoccupied with apartment stuff when I really want to be reading the bible isn't a good thing.
I guess you guys can pray that I would work hard when it's time to work, and rest well when it's time to rest.
Also, we're trying to do some careful planning so that we don't spend our time doing 'good' things when the 'best' things are not quite as obvious. You could really pray that we would listen to the Spirit and that he would lead us (and that we would follow) to the best things. Thanks, guys.

A man grows in faith when his requirements exceed his resources. Sounds like you are there.
