The bolts of your gates will be iron and bronze, and your strength will
equal your days.
Deuteronomy 33:25
Perspective is an interesting thing; it colors everything we
do. And, more often than not, I let my
perspective change me rather than me change my perspective. This makes for a very unpredictable approach
to life. I find myself constantly
working at rearranging my view to meet my needs as my day progresses.
Wouldn’t it be easier (and
smarter) to begin each day with the proper perspective? And then let come what may; knowing I’ll be
ready.
“Your tendency upon awakening is to assess the difficulties ahead of you, measuring them against your average strength. This is an exercise in unreality. I know what each of your days will contain, and I empower you accordingly.”Sarah YoungJesus Calling
So, why not measure my difficulties against the strength of
God. After all that is the strength that
is readily available to me. And there
will always be enough to face the difficulties of each day – no matter what. That is His promise!
Time for a second cup and a prayer of thanks for His steadfast
presence and immeasurable strength.

Makes all of our anxieties seem so self-indulgent doesn't it? Got to exercise the faith muscle more.

ReplyDeleteIf I could only learn to let go, I would be much happier and not need protonics for my tummy! LOL
