Anything and everything can be seen as an inconvenience if you want it to be. You can justify and rationalize all day long about why you don’t have time for people. There will always be reasons, and some of them good ones, why others shouldn’t expect your time and assistance.
But be careful not to put up barriers between you and those you might be able to help. Be flexible. Who knows? Maybe your Plan A might become God’s better Plan B as you help someone with a need. To become more like Jesus, purpose and pray to be approachable, available, and gracious like He was… and still is to you today and every day.

My girls are 13 months apart, which means that during their early years, I often felt like I had twins. I had to really be on my toes-there was little-or-no catching of mistakes I made on the older child so that they wouldn’t be repeated with the younger one. What I was—or wasn’t—doing to love and raise my children was being done to both of them at the same time.

Most of us have no problem memorizing the lyrics to our favorite songs. Sometimes we know them so well, or they're so deeply ingrained in our minds, that they get stuck in our heads. The moment certain songs come on you'll see people rocking in the car or singing along.
