“I GOT TO WORK BEFORE 9 TODAY!”
I excitedly told a friend yesterday after I confessed that I’m embarrassed about getting to work so late every day. Glory to God, I’m bouncing back! No shame in my game; God’s heart has been my hospital, where I go to Him for help to work on all the issues that have been dragging your girl here down, making her very unfocused and burdened. This is God’s loving invitation to all of us:
“Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” – Mathew 11:28-29
HERE’S THE DEAL: GOD IS OUR GREATEST FRIEND! He can help us with any area of our life that’s off-track if we come to Him. He told me to vent anything to Him, but to others, I should be silent. I did. I would run to Him and vent everything that I was feeling upset about 24/7. Then I would follow my spirit as to where to go to hear from Him. Surprisingly, our family’s website, werollwithgod.com, has become one of the best places to seek Him. I get reminders of the person He is calling me to be in every moment. Forget you guys; these blogs and vlogs help me!!!
Then reading of all the times God has shown up for me in the past reminds me that everything I do is between Him and me, not between me and anyone else. God gives me MORE than I can ever ask or imagine; therefore, every moment, I can keep my eyes fixed on Him seeking to please Him. This verse shows up a lot too:
“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable— if anything is excellent or praiseworthy— think on these things.” – Philippians 4:8
There is ALWAYS so much to be thankful for no matter the challenge. Like this morning, I only had cold water to shower with, and I said, ‘Thank You, God, I have water!’ The hospital sessions with God have worked beautifully! I’m not so rough on others or myself, giving us all a clean slate to begin again every day. Nobody’s perfect!
And most importantly, these alone times have trained me to think GREAT THOUGHTS OF GOD. That I’m not going through life alone! I can show up my best self and trust that God is in the spiritual realm working on my behalf. I just need to replace thoughts of doubt with thoughts of, ‘I’m rolling with the KING OF KINGS, baby! To work on upping my FAITH game, trusting God with all my heart. Even when He takes me through difficult and challenging times, I know it’s from the heart of a God who knows what’s best for me. Amen.
…back to living my best life with God. (HUGE SMILE)
