ANNOUNCEMENTS: Backpacking, Boneathon, Dad’s Camp, Memorial Day Murph COT:
Was recently at the funeral of the 22 yo son of my long-time work colleague who lost his battle against drug addiction. There was a ton of support from their friends and community, so much so that they had to open the gym and overflow room, and put chairs in the lobby. After the funeral as we were talking about whether we could make it to the family house due to the large crowd, someone made an insightful comment that they would just wait until about a month from now when the visitors and meals have gone away and the family has to go on living their daily life. It reminded me that supporting one another can be something big like a wedding, funeral or a move. Often, however, bearing one another’s burdens are in simple issues like asking about how work is going, how their diagnosis went, and just generally checking up. Both of the big and small ways are a means of fulfilling the intent in Galatians 6 to bear one another’s burdens, and in so doing, fulfill the law of Christ.

COT: you can’t be your best at everything, all the time. Prioritize closest measurable (test, eval, family schedule, important event) and focus your energy to peak on that thing. BE OK with other priorities slipping back a little. There will be time to refocus as each key event passes.
