"Life is so busy," as my Mum used to say and "when it rains it pours." Sometimes I'd like a drought just for awhile so I can catch up on things. Does this sound familiar? I know as a woman we are often gifted with multitasking but how many multi-tasks do we have to do before we go crazy? Some days it doesn't bother me (probably when I have had enough sleep) but other days take advice and don't come near me - I'm walking a fine line! Then I am encouraged to take time out and sit at The Lord's feet. The only thing is if I sit long enough I fall asleep! But you know what? I know God understands me and my life circumstances. I don't beat myself up about it anymore. I try to pray and listen to God in my daily hectic life. I am continually sending up conversations to Him and sharing with Him my thoughts, my feelings, my failures and my successes. And God makes me feel welcome every time! I try to praise His Name during these hectic times and it’s amazing how I receive peace and joy from doing this. As an old song says The name of the Lord is a strong and mighty tower. Then I use the Names that describe Our God - Wonder Counsellor, Holy One, Abba Father, Comforter, and Almighty. I AM, etc. His Name helps me refocus, refreshes me and reminds me what this Life is all about. You should try it sometime, especially during those mad, crazy days and see how God does this and more for you. For there is always MORE with HIM - way beyond our thoughts or imagination or what we expect! |
