SOme of the issues we have been going through with Noah have really forced me to look at myself. We do a lot for Noah and she is very fortunate and blessed. Lately I have been noticing how much she takes for granted, and we have to now start teaching her how to appreciate things. She is 3 yrs old and I know it's normal, but still has to be addressed. It has made me think how much I take for granted as well. It has made me reflect on ways in which I might be acting just like her towards God (my Father). I really had to repent and ask for forgiveness. God has truly blessed me and given me a beautiful family and a loving, smart, handsome, gracious provider in a husband. My husband is so very, very good to me. My life is literally a dream in the making. I do know God has more for us and our life is just beginning but I just want to be more grateful for what we have right now.
When I begin my day with a fast pace and a mind to "get things done" it really never ends well. I burn out pretty fast. When I take a "rest stop" at the very beginning of my day with God and linger a little, the day always goes better. Micah 7:7 says: Therefore I will look to the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation; My God will hear me. It seems as if when I don't start my day with God a cycle of self-dependence starts and it never ends well. When I start my day with God, dependence on Him starts my day and He reminds me during morning devotional time to lean on Him to get through the day. It helps me to not get "caught up" I pray that for today, that I don't get caught up. Noah is home from school, not feeling very well. I just want to lean on God and trust Him to bring her comfort and help her to heal today. I'm praying that I to would...
