I l...I think that is my biggest struggle, Jessica. I look around at all of the acts of service that I could/should be doing in the world and yet there are these wonderful people who also need my love and caring. I guess one way to solve both problems would be finding ways to serve in the community together... which is hard when they are little, but I think even taking my nephew out to pick up trash or to make blankets with my neice for umcor would help to make a better balance?Katie Z.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01143363139786424632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7900034277402712021.post-85543889317342511442010-06-03T13:14:30.303-05:002010-06-03T13:14:30.303-05:00I think about this a lot.

Between work, the commute, and my precious time with Kate, there's not a lot of time for anything else. I feel guilty about it, and I know that if I were single--or even childless--I would/could do a lot more for others. I wouldn't wish away my family for anything--motherhood is indeed a calling in itself--but I really can't disagree with Paul's argument that singleness is best for devoting onesself fully to the service of God.Jessica Miller Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11407283047174143978noreply@blogger.com
