6.17.13-6.23.13
From my journal on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
Jesus, I’ve got a lot of anxiousness about work lately. It’s filled my mind, or at least it’s trying to creep in, to fill my mind.
Jesus, You alone are beautiful. The thought of You and me together in eternity is my soul’s only satisfaction. Lord, in my everyday will You continue to meet me and fill me so that I am strong in Your power as one who carries Your name! I depend on You to speak into and sustain me, my marriage, my ability to parent, my family, my work, my friends and my time!
Lord, You can and will continue to help me make the best use of my time, may I continue to grow in Your wisdom and Your love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, kindness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control.
Simple, trust.
I delight for You alone meet all my needs.
Later in the day I write again.…
While we commune in the mornings, on occasion as we near the end of our time together, I feel the pressures of the “list,” the “shoulds,” the “it’s not working” and the “I must have missed somethings” press against me.
This has especially been the case the past two days. Sigh. Then today before Ryan left for work he shared with me the news of being two months behind on our mortgage payment and that he doesn’t have any answers, ideas or peace to share.
Within me I have peace. It has to be You beside me.
I sat Audrey and Spence down after breakfast and I asked them for their utmost cooperation moving forward as siblings and as our (Your) chosen children having been placed here by You, within our unique fold.
*As I re-read my journal entry this song was a gift to remember and I place here now, for you, the one, reading. May your heart and eyes be lifted to gaze upon our Beautiful Jesus (by Jonathon and Melissa Helser). He is our Only answer in and for all ❤
