Strength

So as the week drags on I am constantly reminded that I am not use to this at all. I am extremely tired. I am longing to sleep in longer than 7:17 a.m., I pray that Eli would have a good day were he doesn't bite, hit, or scream at me, and I keep hoping for good weather. But with all or these things I still am loving what I am doing. I thank God daily for this opportunity and these live I can invest in.

Tomorrow is suppose to be my day off but I am going to help out for a couple of hours. Which is not a big deal at all. I am super excited for tomorrow though. I get to sleep in until I am thinking 8, I get to see Kylie, I get to go to Converge to worship my loving Father, and the weather is suppose to be nice. It should be perfection, minus the I have no idea what Eli is going to be like tomorrow.

So today me and Ben went down to the basement to play while Eli was napping. We got out some random toys and then I started making him hats. Blue and green of course, he will constantly let you know that he hates red and yellow if you try to give him that. Then the hats turned into arm (he says wrist) bands. So of course I made me some and put my sleeves over them and lets just say it looked like I went to the gym everyday and worked on my arms for hours (which is probably so true ;) yah right). then he wanted to show me how big his muscles were.

Anyway all of this got me thinking about Gods strength and my strength I have in the Lord.

Psalm 27:1

The LORD is my light and my salvation;

whom shall I fear?

The LORD is the strength of my life;

of whom shall I be afraid?

When we accept the Jesus as our Savior and the Holy Spirit enters our bodies, really what shall we fear. Or of what strength do we not possess. God gave us all of this. With Him we have all the strength of the world and with Him we are under Him protection forever. I have been saved, wiped clean of my wrongs, and now all I have left to do is glorify Him with every breath I breathe. No evil spirit can take me, no depression can beat me, and no tiredness can make me fall. I am all God's and I will not let the world and it's evils win.

So I can make it though each day, tired or not. I can learn something new about my Savior. And I will not fall for the Lord is where I draw my strength from.

Praise the Lord.

He is our Strength.
