This Morning

After my first post during the night I still couldn't get back to sleep, my head was just spinning with all kinds of things that was preventing me from sleeping. Everything within me just yelled inside my head, "What have you done? Setting up a blog about your spiritual journey. You are so totally screwed up!" And on the recriminations went. I started reciting scripture, and praying, finally at 6:30 am with having only had 3 hours of sleep I phoned my hubby who was on his way to work, and told him what was going on, that I couldn't sleep and how would I get through the day. He said if you haven't fallen asleep by 8 am then phone me and I'll arrange to have the day off and you can come and pick me up. How sweet of him.

After that I was able to get back to sleep and I slept deeply for the next 1 hour and 20 minutes. My children came in telling me how our youngest had taken all of his pjs off and his diaper and had peed in the crib. How did I respond? I calmly put him in the tub, his older sisters helped me as I desperately tried to see through my gritty eyes. He enjoyed his early morning bath and we moved on and had breakfast.

So this is what happens when we take a step outside of our comfort zone. We start to experience spiritual attacks, sometimes things get crazy, soon we start to doubt ourselves and what we have done. Well, today I am starting my day with a verse and it says in Philippians 4:13-20 (New International Version) ¹³I can do everything through him who gives me strength." Today I can do all things through Christ, I chose to cling to this verse today and He will be my strength.

Thank you Jesus that you always keep your promises. Help me to have your strength today to do all the tasks that you have put before me. In Jesus name, Amen

Have a great day everyone!
