Power for today!
This morning alone, I had so many ideas and dreams that I didn't even know how to pack them into 24 hours!
While watching an online worship service, I immediately came up with two song ideas that I could work on. Then I wanted to continue writing my next book, clean my home, catch up on my bookkeeping—and, in addition, I had what felt like 20 new ideas for A Miracle Every Day that I wanted to write down.
I got up from the couch and thought, "This is too much for me…I'm getting tired again. I could just go back to bed." I suppose that's an option, too, to just lie down and wait for the next day. Often we think that if we do, we'll have a bit more energy to tackle our work and our dreams. But it rarely works that way. We don't experience the results of persistence if we aren't persistent. Only those who stick with it will experience what happens when they do!
friend,persistence is a choice each of us has to make. You don't need to worry today about whether or not your strength will still be there tomorrow. I encourage you to keep at it today, despite being tired.
"You bless all who depend on You for their strength…When they reach Dry Valley, springs start flowing, and the autumn rain fills it with pools of water. Your people grow stronger…" (Psalm 84:6-7, CEV). Yes, God wants to give you fresh energy to keep going every day!
Let Him become your go-to source for EVERYTHING, friend. Even if you don't feel like persevering today, as you stick closely to Him, He will show you the way to new strength!
Keep at it today…you will see what God's power can do!
You are a miracle!
