Have you ever agreed to do something, then later realized that task entailed more than you originally thought? I agreed to several things today, and I will give them all my best. But I'm wondering: am I a "softie" or a "sucker"?

Being a "softie" is not always a bad thing! You probably like to please people...and that's not always bad either. People pleasers often have a servant's heart. Balance has become somewhat of a watchword for me. I'm ages older than you are, and I'm finally learning that sometimes I should say no. And sometimes I have to back out after I've said yes. The thing is to be true to God, work on keeping priorities straight, and maintain a balance in personal/spiritual/home/church and whatever other areas you're trying to juggle. You're doing fine! Relax in the Lord and He'll lead you in everything.

You ARE doing well, and it IS OK to politely back out if you know you will not be able to give it your 100%!
