There is a Christian saying, “God never gives us anything we can’t handle.” I believe this to be true and so whenever faced with adversity, I repeat that saying to remind me that I can get thru whatever it is that I am dealing with at the time.

During the Stay-at-Home order for Covid I thought that I would have all this extra time to read. I envisioned myself as one of those people who would curl up on the couch and read a book during my “down time.” Seven months later, I still do not have down time. When George Floyd died and all of America wanted justice, I knew this was a big issue but I didn’t know what to do to help. I knew one thing, throwing another book onto the pile on my nightstand in hopes to read it someday wasn’t going to work. Some of the books on my nightstand have been there for 2 years! In this case, I needed to learn about racism asap otherwise I wouldn’t understand the civil unrest that was happening all around me. I immediately loaded my Audible library with two books: White Fragility by Robin DiAngelo and How to be an Antiracist by Ibram X. Kendi.
Everyone wishes there was more time in the day to do what they want to do, yet no one has been able to bottle up time and sell it. I started to think, how much would I pay to have more time?
