Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. ~1 Peter 5;6
My happy has gotten bumped by the cares of this world. I am grumpy and want to go home and put the covers over my head. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately my job does not allow me to do this. My stubbornness to get through the day helps a bit too. I search my mind for a word from God that will see me through. This is what came to mind. "Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. "
I must stay humble under God's mighty hand. I have to look for the beauty in the day that He has blessed me with. I can talk to God about it knowing that He cares (1 Peter 5:7) and I have to let it go. I need to get happy in Christ. God will lift me up in due time. I just need to persevere. I need to run into His awaiting arms and climb up onto His lap and feel His presence surround me. I have to let go of the grumpy-give it to God. Do my job and do it well. He will work out the rest as I trust in Him.
Lord, You know my my needs; my stress points. Let me give them all to You and stay humble and grateful for another day. Let me stand in the center of Your will. I surrender all. In Jesus name. Amen
I know I work hard and treat people well daily. I admit to them when I trespass, and offer an apology in hopes of being understood and receiving grace. I walk away feeling the same rather the message was received, or more time is needed to process.
ReplyDeleteI feel blessed with the humility in which could have only been gained through Gods everlasting love.
Proverbs 16:3 Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.
Thank you Lord for the reading of your word. In Jesus name, Amen.
