Continuing to follow the story of Mary, before the birth of Christ, we are told that Mary was happy about her pregnancy. She accepted her challenge with reverence and awe. She gave birth to a healthy - actually perfect - little man. That means that she took good care of herself during her pregnancy. We know that Joseph, also visited by an angel, accepted his mission in life as well; to marry and care for Mary even though he did not completely understand the situation. Joseph manned up and did the right thing. Thank God (no pun intended) he did!
As writer's we must also care for ourselves. It is hard when you are working a full time job during the day, and writing at night. Throw in some kids, a spouse, and life's typical problems, and you have the workings of a nervous breakdown in the process.
But if we can step back, remind ourselves of the mission that we accepted, and connect with God once again, then all the turmoil of life seems to settle back down. Re-accept your mission on a daily basis. When life gets in the way, don't give up. Just accept the mission again, and start fresh. And above all, take care of yourselves. You can't save the world if you can't save yourself!
See life differently.
