I laid down this evening going over today’s passage in my head. I can’t lie, today I was weary. I was frustrated, tired, sick, but still pressing hard to get the things done that needed done. This evening I looked around my house discouraged. We still have very little pictures hung, no tree up. My schedule for Christmas shopping doesn’t seem to fit in with others. I felt discouragement trying to creep in.
I had to tell myself to stop focusing on the negative and focus on God. Yes God, I started remembering His promises and realized the devil was trying hard to bring me down. He is a liar. Why am I sharing this? We need each other to lift each other up. We need each other to encourage us when we are weary and don’t think we can keep going. We need each other to pray for one another. And we need to know we are not alone. The devil tries to discourage us all, he tries to wears us down. He wants us to give up. Again, he is a liar.
Child of God, it’s okay to get tired. It’s understandable to say you’ve had enough. But it’s not okay to stay there. Turn up the praise music. Call or text a friend. Don’t rehash the day over and over, don’t rewind things beyond your control. Let go and let God be God. You keep doing right, you keep doing your best and allow God to take care of the rest. 🦅 ~ Prophetess Michelle, #f8ithgal, #Joy
“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” ~ Galatians 6:9
