Have you ever felt like the responsibilities of life are more than you can bear at times? Lately I have. I noticed I was pulling away from people the past two days. I’m not one who can fake my emotions very well so when I feel uncertain I pull back. This is not a place I let myself stay for long but I needed to regroup.
Last week the Lord showed me that living here will be a place that I will call “The Lord Provides” and let me tell you that is no easy place to be. I think in this day and age we try to be self sufficient individuals and I was one of those people. But now I am in total dependency on the Lord. It has proven to be a struggle for me and when I find myself feeling frustrated, unsure or at a loss for any emotion I pull back.
This is what I know: The Lord is my provider! He is my way maker and He will never leave me nor forsake me.
“Be still and know that I am God”…
As a mother I see the needs of my home and children and automatically want to shift into gear to get things done. Make it happen! Out here I find the Lord not letting me. “Be still and know that I am God”. Is being still a form of an action Lord? Because I don’t feel like anything’s happening? Ahh but it is, God is moving on my behalf as I stand and trust Him to provide. When I have done all that I can I then sing His praises. I encourage myself in His word and stand on His promises. I release all that fills me and chokes my joy, and I let Him refresh my spirit.
Still Standing….
