Somehow I can almost relate to Gideon, who we're told in Judges 8 was exhausted and asked for bread for his worn out troops, who were on their way to conquer another army. He kept on going, even though they were all tired.
That's kinda what deadline is like sometimes. I'd love to stop and rest, but this work's gotta get done. It's a quiet joy, though. And it's very satisfying to see it done.
