TO DO LIST


Dear Friend:
So many things are important.
Marriage is important
Family is important
Spending time with God is important.
Visiting the lonely and sick is important.
Being available for others is important.
Work is important.
When I look at the words above it becomes a "To Do List".
I must make others happy.
I must make my marriage happy.
I must spend time with God.

It goes on and on…



It goes on and on…I’m trying to do it all.

Honestly I get up in the morning and I want to go back to bed and hide/sleep.  I muster up energy to stop,  run to my devotions and bible so I can trust God with it all. God never lets me down. I feel unexplained energy wash over me like a wave. I get excited about it. I pray that others get this connection. Want this connection.

Without it I would feel as if I can't:
Be happy.
Make my marriage work out.
Have peace in my home with my family.
Visit others.
Make a difference.

My love from above has to be enough. He turns my “To Do List” into joy. He helps me to do things with joy for Him. I can’t do life with Him. He is everything to me. How about you?
2 Corinthians 12:9
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.

Prayer: Father Your grace is sufficient. I want to talk more about you than me. Help me God to trust You. Help me to be in the moment. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
