Good morning or good day to anyone who may be reading today. I had lots on my mind last night and had lots I wanted to write about, but now the only thing that I can really think of to say is that I have a prayer request---
I'm being tested with what I posted yesterday, and I could use some prayer for perseverance and I could also use some major encouragment. So, if you think of talking to God about me...maybe you could pray that He sends some encouragement to me, in whatever form He wishes? I'm REALLY struggling with fatigue and waking up in the mornings due to a medication adjustment, and it's affecting work/school and relationships. I'm also really missing some people who are close to my heart, and it's got me feeling down.
I'm still trying to give it to Him. On a brighter note---I heard this song yesterday for the first time and really loved it.

Starry Night by Chris August
From the Birds that Sing, In the Tallest Trees.
To the Human Life, of you and me.
From the Desert Sands, to the place we stand.
He is God of All, He is Everything.
I'm giving my life to the only one who makes the Moon reflect the sun.
Every Starry Night, that was His design.
I'm giving my life to the only son, who was and is and yet to come
Let the praises ring, 'cause he is everything
'Cause he is everything
From the Autumn Leaves, that will ride the breeze
To the Faith it takes, to pray and sing
From the Painted sky, to my plank filled eye
He is God of all, He is everything
I'm giving my life to the only one who makes the Moon reflect the sun.
Every Starry Night, that was His design.
I'm giving my life to the only son, who was and is and yet to come
Let the praises ring, 'cause he is everything.
Ohhhhhhh (everything)
Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
Hallelujah
I believe
Ohhh
Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
Hallelujah
I believe
I'm giving my life to the only one who makes the Moon reflect the sun
On that Starry Night, He changed my life.
I'm giving it all to the only son who gave me hope when I had none.
So let the praises ring,
Ohhhh Let the Praises Ring
I'm giving my life to the only one who makes the Moon reflect the sun.
Every Starry Night, that was His design.
I'm giving my life to the only son, who was and is and yet to come
and the Angels sing, that he is Heavenly
So let the Praises ring
'Cause He is everything
Hey...I find that focusing on the positive works really well...Im not saying that you aren't....i am merely saying this becauase it's going to lead into what i really have to say. i have read your last two posts and i can't help but wonder if you are more than "slightly stressed out". Belive me...i know the feeling...i wrote this little paragrah on my notes section on my facebook page but here it is for you to read...all of this you know, however it doesn't hurt to rremind you.
ReplyDeleteJust when you think things can't get any worse, somehow they do. but as christians, we know that everything will work in our favor. as it says in Romans 8:28 God works for the good of those who love him... We have nothing to worry about the stress and the busy life cause you know that when it is all said and done, what was to be accomplished, got accomplished. granted it may not have been on YOUR time table, but more importantly, it was done on GOD's time table. so just when you feel overwhlemed, take a moment and pray...it works wonders.
ok now that you have read that....take a moment and make a mental list of all the thinigs we have to be thankful for. To be completly honest with you...i don't do this enough, so this is good for me. The long and the short of it...TRUST IN GOD and DON'T WORRY. I may not know whas it's like to have trouble waking up in the morning and so on...however, i do know whats it's like to be missing some ppl. It's a real downer. so everyday, I pray that God will bring me closer to him and I will be walking in his footsteps. All we can do is do our very best and give him the glory in all that we do...I hope this is some help to you...maybe even lift your spirits...Blessings on your day
