I am trying to do these devotionals, that I have on my kindle. I have one for busy moms, and one for daily reading. I am hoping to find some help through the struggles that have found their way into my life. Don't get me wrong, I know that life is full of struggles and that's God's way of giving us strength, and new beginnings, and all that good stuff. I'm great with it, I just feel overwhelmed at times, and feel like I'm going to drown in the struggles. I'm hoping that by reading the devotionals daily and posting about them, that I will be forced to actually apply them to my daily life. Here's hoping.
So, I'm going to start out with the first one, and I'll do this one from the busy mom's devotional, since I'm super busy now that I am back at work full time, and my classes will be starting again on Saturdays. I need to make time to pray, not just to ask for stuff, but to give thanks for what has been given....and taken away!
So here is my first daily devotion, for busy moms:
He gives power to those who are tired and worn out: He offers strength to the weak.
Isaiah 40:29 (NLT)
Wow! I am still amazed at how things happen at just the right time. I decided to do this daily devotional today, and the first one is on strength, which I need tons of right now. I know my God will not give me more than I can handle and will not bring me to something with out bringing me through it. I just need to ask for His help, guidance, & love. As it says in Matthew 7:7-8 Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. 8For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened.
I am going to make a real honest true effort to pray everyday. To ask God for his guidance, & wisdom, and to thank Him even when it's hard to find something to be thankful for!
Wow! I feel better. I think that this just might be a good thing.
