When is too busy too busy?

When our business/work takes over our lives.

When we don't see our spouse and children for days on end.

When we don't take the time to centre on Jesus and on His Word in our lives.

When we loose our spiritual perspective on our life due to the lack of prayer.

When we give in to those little temptations that we no longer have the spiritual strength to ignore.

Those are some aspects of just how crazy things have been for me lately.

Please pray for us, that I can slow down to spend time with my family and not loose my relationships with them due to my absence.

Where is Jesus Christ in all of this? Standing right beside me waiting for me to turn to Him for help.

Pax vobis (peace be with you),

J.E.

John - Tomorrow being Pentecost if you ask the Holy Spirit He will fill you with peace and give you the grace of love's imagination and someone to help you carry your burden so you have more time with your wife and children.

God bless you,

Fr. Joseph
