Punzi's Corner Blog: A super tight schedule

A super tight schedule

I really hate this days when your schedules are tight. As in you need the precision of a military operation to get through this day.

I have a meeting over at Farview, then off to my consultancy because it's the boss' birthday today. Then back to a marathon conference I have been attending for the entire week that been keeping out of the house until very late.

But what's worse is a tight amorphous schedule. You know what I mean. A schedule that is not only tight, but may also change at a moment's notice. Or a tight schedule with one appointment that has not been confirmed but you need to fit in once it is.

Add to that, I have not been getting enough sleep lately (and not enough time to in the first place) and I've coming home late and I don't get to see my kids as much as I want or should.

But I hope everything will work out fine today. And I hope I can fit everything today, in whatever order it may happen.

Anyway, I can squeeze some downtime over the weekend, although I have a briefing paper to prepare and submit before Monday.

Again, I'm not complaining. Just blogging about it.

A great weekend for us all.

Disaster relief, sustainable development & community service

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.
