Figuring it all out
Figuring out what to do, when and how to do it can be a full time job. I think you can consume your life by trying to manage many of the details that you need to just "live out". Sure I know that some people would have no identity without being the "every detail under control person". But maybe this is the very person who need to live, and not just manage details.
Jesus was a detail guy. He did everything that He saw the father doing. His management system was obedience to what was revealed and not the troublesome life of introspection. The inward gaze should always be to find the Lord, not to fix yourself. Self-improvement by definition results only in more you, more self.
Figure out your life by living in relationship to the Lord, you shepherd. God is desiring to lead each of us daily. He wants the walk with us, direct our steps and fill us with revelation(vision) of what to do. Get an energy boost by trusting the Lord to direct your steps.
