Oh where does time fly

I am so tired! Why can't I get to bed before 11:00! This is getting ridiculous! I am so exhausted and I have been for 4 months! I am not catching up on my sleep. I get up at 6:30am in the mornng, blink and then it's 12 midnight! God has been showing me that I need to slow down. It's getting bad. I feel like I have so much to do during the day and they keep me up until late at night. When I wake up in the morning my mind is already whirling with everything that I must do that day and even the next day!!
I AM HELD CAPTIVE BY TASKS!
I can't even relax enough to spend time with God. I say a quick prayer in the morning just so that it will ease my conscience. But it doesn't work. And I have sat down to get in His Word and I battle with my mind to focus the entire time! Definitely need to chill! So I am dedicating this week to "chilling out". yes I have a ton of things to do. Yes I am getting behind on laundry. YES I still have boxes that need to be unpacked, bills to pay, phone calls to make, AND a kitchen to clean, all after I get off work at 5. But I will relax in God and do what I can. And I will spend more time doing the things that actually amount to something rather than worrying about the things that are piling up.

I'm looking for an answer

I'm working at the church now part time. I didnt sign up for classes this semester....newly married and all....still trying to figure that one out ~:- But things are great!!

I had a question though that I can't find an answer to.......I've looked through God's word and the only thing that I can find is that God is going to kill this person. I know, it's harsh....but read Jer. 23 and 28 and you'll see what I mean!!

My question ( if anybody even reads this) is......if a person is known to be a ( now day) prophet and are known for receiving word from the Lord as a prophet and they get something terribly wrong.......are they a false prophet? Quite honestly, after reading Jer. I am just a little freaked out. Not by prophesy, but by the seriousness of it. I mean...we're not talking about a little encouragement from one brother to another.....we are talking about the SPOKEN WORD of GOD! And that's a very serious thing!! God killed prophets in the old testement that proclaimed in God's name but were wrong. Jeremiah 28 for example.



Comments would be appreciated.
