Punctuality

This is a bit of a difficult topic for me because I am not always on time, even though I am someone who is keen on time management and intentional living. It is something I am working on personally and professionally, but without making excuses, I wanted to share a different way of thinking about punctuality. There is a bigger picture to consider and sometimes we need to prioritize purpose and people over punctuality. Even as a GP (family doctor), I might give a depressed patient more than the scheduled ten minutes and run late, so that I can sleep well after a job well done. Should we be led by the clock or by the Spirit? What do you think?
