Today has been a hard day. I came to my office at church expecting to 'get lots done' today. In my administrative mind that means 'get organized', 'make lists', 'check things off the list', etc.
Very shortly after arriving today, I found out that one of the students I've been caring for all year lost her father yesterday. It's tragic, sad and unfathomable. All of a sudden my idea of 'get lots done' changed to look like caring for this girl who is in shock and is grieving. And that's okay. And so much more important. And so while I 'got nothing done' today, I did exactly what I needed to today.
