I found my to-do list for a past Easter weekend. I had had a fever, and over Easter was booked off by the doctor. While I was booked off, I prepared five messages, had a series of meetings, and there were four long journeys scheduled. I realised that this wasn't quite working -- it was too much for me where I was not at full strength -- so I rearranged my list. I put Easter at the top of my list -- which included two of the four journeys -- then beneath that I put "Me". So I made two of the four journeys, and conducted the Easter service. OBSERVATION: This is typical of ministers, and there are ministers who have almost killed themselves this way. Looking back on this list, I should probably have cancelled everything.
