“I will deliberately lose myself in the new preoccupation so that when I come back from it, my thoughts will be freshened and ready to deal clearly with what I have to face.” (ODAT, 24 December)
If I know what to do about a problem, I do it and forget about it.
If I do not know what to do about a problem, I ask God and forget about it.
It’s then God’s job to tell me what—if anything—to do. If nothing comes, that itself is the answer.
