Have you ever had one of those days where you just don't think you can "do" the day?
I have. Today.
After a splitting headache last night, I woke up anticipating that I would feel refreshed and renewed after a night of Tylenol PM-induced sleep. No such luck. Instead... my morning began with a painfully long wait in the Starbucks drive thru followed by one small irritant after another.
I sat at my desk this morning, an emotional disaster. Wondering what in the world was my problem, I said to the walls (who seemed to being ignoring me) "I can't do today. I'm just not strong enough and I don't even know why."
Great. Now what?
I looked up and saw my answer. (At least the desk wasn't ignoring me too) On my desk is my little verse-flip-doo-dad. Crazy as it is, it said this...
2 Chronicles 6:9 "The eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him."
Totally convicting. I got the message loud and clear. My heart was weak. Guess whose fault that was?? Not God's. Nope. It was my fault. All mine. I hadn't committed myself fully to Him. Instead, I was looking around at everything else in my life, the issues, the noise.
So, here's my re-boot effort for the day. Let's see if I can get it right this time.
