We can’t do it alone

Depend on God

Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
   he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
My salvation and my honor depend on God;
   he is my mighty rock, my refuge.

Trust in him at all times, you people;
   pour out your hearts to him,
   for God is our refuge.

Psalm 62:6-8

Ever have one of those days?  You know the ones.  The ones where you just can't seem to get it together or catch a break. For some reason the alarm didn’t wake you.    You realized that you had forgotten to put the load of laundry you did last night in the dryer. Now you are forced to wear the clothes from the back of your closet.  You still need to make your lunch. Your children missed the school bus.  There is traffic on the freeway that makes you even later for work.  There are 2 different meetings tonight for your child’s school and soccer practice. Things are just not going your way!  You feel like you are being pulled in 20 different directions.

You are not alone!  I have had many of those days.  Right in the middle of the chaos, I will call out to God. 

“Lord, Thank you for these trying times, because I know there is a purpose for them.  Please give me the wisdom to learn from them, the strength to make it through, and comfort in knowing that you are right there with me”

The next time you are feeling pulled in 20 different directions, reach out to God and ask for help.

Many Blessing,

Linda
