Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right, persevering, and steadfast spirit within me..
Psalm 51:10
We set ourselves up either for misery or for joy by the mindset that we have toward the thingss in our life.. Mindsets are the patterns in which our mind normally operates toward a certain determination.. For example, when we look at our schedule today, it may seem that there is far too much to do.. But if we choose the mindset that God will help us through it, we will enjoy watching how everything falls into place..
Refuse to dread what must be done.. Greet the day with a right attitude and a thankful heart that you have a Savior who is ready to rescue you from more than you can handle.. Enjoy yourself and say, "I refuse to live in dread; I am going to enjoy my life today.."
I am going through some really tough trials right now.. Honestly, I have been on my knees humbling myself to the Lord asking for anything that he can throw at me right now.. I have begged him for a spiritual peace within me about my situation.. I have asked for him to speak to me, to lift me up.. It is a time of need for me.. This devotion from today lifted me higher than I have ever been lifted before.. In past times, I have let my flesh be my fulfillment.. Allowing that it would always fulfill me.. Either with my children, my husband, shopping, baking cakes.. I have come to realize that I can not and will not be fulfilled with these things alone at all.. What a wonderful way to start the day Lord.. Thank you so much for sending me this devotion today.. I refuse to live in dread everyday.. I start my new adventure with you today.. I will let you forever be my guide.. What will be will be and I am accepting your path that you have for me now more than ever today.. Thank you for allowing me to be a wife and a mother most of all.. I am sorry for all of my shortcomings.. I know that you put those in my path for a reason Lord.. The reason is because of you.. You allowed me to fall so that I could be picked up in your mercy.. Thank you for all my many blessings..
