Hey ladies! So, there is always sooo much to get done on a daily basis. We have school, work, kids, appointments and errands to take care of and time with God is just another ADD-ON to our list. We think time with God will take away from everything else we have to get done and so we just push time with Him to the side and go on about our day. But what then happens is half way through the day we feel empty, exhausted, overwhelmed and frustrated barely accomplishing anything. At that point we just feel worthless and discouraged. There would be countless times where I'd wake up in the morning and find myself with a long list of things to do that spending time with God was the least of my concerns. I would just continue my day and end up feeling defeated, alone and ready to quit. We are not superwomen ladies. Yes, God has given us the ability to multi-task but ULTIMATELY we need HIM to get through the day. We still need His strength, His wisdom, His direction, His protection, AND His presence. If not, we burn out pretty quickly. Our day should be given over to Him. When we learn to cultivate that, things fall right into place, we get more done, we have PEACE, and we become SRESS-FREE. Before I start my day, I like to say this AFTER MY TIME WITH GOD: YOU LOVE ME. YOU SAVED ME. MY LIFE IS IN YOUR HANDS. YOUR MERCIES ARE NEW FOR ME EACH DAY. TODAY, I GIVE ALL TO YOU. MY CIRCUMSTANCES, MY DECISIONS, MY DISAPPOINTMENTS, MY TASKS, AND MY SHORTCOMINGS. FOR YOU ARE IN CONTROL. IN RETURN, I TAKE YOUR PEACE, YOUR JOY, YOUR WISDOM, YOUR LOVE, AND HOPE. TAKE OVER JESUS. WITH YOU ALL IS POSSIBLE AND I CAN DO ALL THINGS. NO SITUATION I FACE TODAY IS TOO HARD TO HANDLE. ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO THOSE WHO LOVE GOD. THANK YOU JESUS. I'LL TRUST YOU. This is just an idea of statements you can tell yourself before you start your day--each day. When we begin to remind ourselves and speak out the truth it gives strength to go. So let Jesus be your Superman and let His Word be your running fuel to tackle any villain or challenge you face!
