I run into a lot of tired people, including myself. It seems as if everyone is burning the proverbial candle at both ends. It seems that everyone has enough going on for two people and they are taking on more. There is a lot to get done; there doesn't always seem to be enough people working to accomplish the tasks. On the other hand, sometimes, there is no one else to help.
I don't know about you, but, when I start getting really tired, physically exhausted, I can find myself in the midst of a pity party. Again, I am not advocating that pity parties are bad. We all get down from time to time; this world knows how to knock us down and drag us around. It's okay to have a pity party. It is completely unacceptable and unproductive to remain in a pity party.
So, how do we bring ourselves out of our doldrums? How do we defeat the negativity inside our own heads? How do we find the strength to push through another tiring and trying day? How do we keep on keeping on? All good and legitimate questions. Today's word is a reminder that GOD will provide what we need when we need it.
Today's word is Jeremiah 31:13b, NLT, which reads, "...I will turn their mourning into joy. I will comfort them and their sorrow for rejoicing."
It is when we are at our lowest that we have to fight our hardest. Rest assured that our efforts, our determination, our fight does not go unnoticed. GOD sees our situation. He sees the effort that is expended. He sees the exhaustion that is endured. He sees our struggles. He also has a plan. Today's word reminds us that if we faithfully fight, GOD will faithfully sustain.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
