Yes, Steve, that's why I have to do what I need to do and not listen to what others say I should or need to do! I know my circumstances better than anyone else, except God. If we're saved in Christ, we must do all we can for Him, then stand firm on our faith! Therefore, He must be served first and foremost! I just cannot do everything and when I try I don't do anything right and get confused!
When I metal detect too often, I fall behind in everything else and then I suffer the consequences.
I used to be able to do more and keep going, but cannot any longer.
The Lord is good and His joy is our strength to do His will and not what I will, even when I would rather be out enjoying detecting and the outdoors!
I'm glad you are able to do both very well!
God Bless!
Betty
