I took a tumble and hurt my knee a couple of weeks ago. It was a no-brainer to take it easy and give it a rest. I asked people to do things for me and let a number of things slide. Not unreasonable, given the situation.

The problem is, I slipped into lazy mode.

Last night I looked at my kitchen floor and noticed it needed a good scrub. I mentally dismissed it and then I realized I was now quite capable of doing the job. Then I realized I was ignoring all kinds of little jobs around the house. Time to move my lazy bones.

I didn’t know it could happen that fast. I had dropped my heart to serve and I let my sweetie do most of the work.

My knee is not totally back to normal and I need to watch what I do, but I can put on my servant’s heart and look for ways to love on and serve my husband and others.

I also need to take a look at how limitations affect what I do and don’t do (life has a way of throwing curves at you). Physical limitations change circumstances. They don’t have to change your heart.

Give your hands to serve and your hearts to love.  Mother Teresa
