This is the reflection question from today's devotion, but I thought it was a good question for group discussion as well so I am going to bring it here.
Check in with yourself. Are you at high capacity—I feel able to juggle everything on my plate—or low capacity—I don’t have the energy to do it all today? Given today’s reality, is there anything you can take yourself off the hook for, ask for help completing, or punt to another day? Or, if you are feeling high capacity, is there something you could take off someone else’s plate to help them out?
Feel free to share as much or little since this is a personal question! I know I am feeling at low capacity this Lent. There are very likely things I could take myself off the hook for or ask for help in completing. One question I get asked sometimes is, "is that something that has to be your responsibility or can someone else take that?" That question always complete throws me for a loop because I never even considered it! So where are you all at?
