So wow my life has been crazy! And I have had a really hard time getting back around to my blog. But here I am and I hope that someone will be touched by it and find something worthwhile in it. I am totally enjoying being able to put my thoughts down and I hope that what God lays on my heart is exactly what someone needs to hear.
I am tired. I get up in the morning tired. I run from one activity to the next, and at times I feel all I am doing is trying to get through instead of living in it! I just really need to get this thing done so that I can do the next thing on my never ending list. At times I look ahead and wonder how am I supposed to get it all done? And does God even get that I am running just to catch up much less get ahead! I know that i can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! I know that i can find rest in Him! I know that He knows the number of hairs "on" my head so surely He knows the worries "in" my head! However, I find I consistently need to remind myself of these things and I would venture to say you probably live a similar lifestyle.
I know that one of Satan's best tools is his ability to keep us so busy and overwhelmed that we don't even see him chinking away at our armor. He doesn't come to us when we are strong and rested and firmly planted. He comes to us when we are distracted and overwhelmed, or just tired. He speaks his untruths to us at these times and it becomes our time to speak aloud the truths of our Father. Remind yourself of who you are! You and I are more than conquerors we are Coheirs with Christ. So lets don't let the laundry and housework overtake us. Let's don't let the PTO and baseball and haircuts and childhood crisis become bigger than the truths of who we are. I'm thirsty for His living water. I need to be refreshed, and so do you. From time to time we need to rest in Him and let him strengthen us for another day and one more round.
God bless and keep you Ms. Jill
