I am feeling so “out of it!” I cannot seem to manage working five days a week, exercise, cleaning house, quiet time, blogging…will this EVER come together? I do not know, but I DO KNOW that I am doing what I am supposed to be doing right now. I do know that I do not get to see the whole picture. SO…I will cling to this:
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee:
for my strength is made perfect in weakness.
Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities,
that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
II Corinthians 12:9
His grace will see me through this time of uncertainty. His grace will see me through as I learn how to juggle everything. His grace will be the flashlight I need in the dark, as I try to find my way. His grace is all I need.
Lord, thank you for this reminder today. I know that with your help, I can figure out how to manage this so that I am at peace. Help me learn to manage my time more efficiently and accept “good enough” instead of always expecting everything to be perfect.
Don’t forget that today is the last day to enter my giveaway in celebration of my 100th post. Be sure to enter by 8 p.m. eastern time.
oh man, does this post hit home. My hubby is away right now and I have just been having a very difficult time managing the house and the kids..car got a flat..laundry is piling up and house needs a good cleaning. Lawn is growing faster than the boys can mow it and my dern magnolia died on me. Went to Adoration yesterday and felt so good, then the flat tire. I said, "God, really?". But I think he just smiled at me. I definitely need to manage my time more efficiently this week. Unfortunately a good chunk of it will be spent at Wal-Mart getting the tire fixed. 🙂
I'll be thinking of you today…and saying a prayer. Why is it that so much of this stuff happens when we are trying to manage it by ourselves? Is THAT part of the problem – trying to manage it ourselves?
Have a blessed day!!
