When you step on the legos for the 12th time. When the dirty dishes are
still in the sink. When the arguing from the little's doesn't seem to
stop. When you forget that the dryer still has clothes in it from
yesterday. When the luggage still sits there even though it's empty.
When the science projects linger in the kitchen to grow more. When the
dog insists that the leaf is trying to break in the house but she will
save you with her constant barking. GRACE...give grace not only to
others but to YOURSELF. Today is a new day! Happy Friday!
This week's blog topic from Proverbs 31 OBS is on “Worry”… AND I know a thing or two about worry. I’m betting a lot of you reading this do as well. Dictionary.com defines worry as: “ to torment oneself with or suffer from disturbing thoughts; fret. ” Torment oneself. Suffer. Fret. That’s what I can do to myself sometimes. I’ve heard that if you worry you don’t really trust that God can handle it. You don’t trust God with it. That’s hard to swallow for me. Because I worry about my kids, my family, me, friends, etc. But I’m in the Bible every single day. I am a Jesus girl. So for me to worry and then see that my worry means I don’t trust that God can handle it is hard. UGH. I am getting better about it though. My time with God every morning is helping. When I start to worry about something…I begin to pray. I stop the tormenting in its tracks and give it to Jesus. Now, I may have to give it to Jesus more than once.
