I'm not sure if you have ever felt this way - tired, worn out, stuck on auto pilot, doing the same things day in and day out and yet feeling like something has to give, but not knowing where to start?
I'm sure none of you have ever felt like this - but I sure have the last couple of weeks. I could give every excuse as to why I'm still feeling this way - I don't have time, money, energy blah blah blah - to make a change, but is that really the reason?
I don't think so. I can only speak for myself, but I find it hard to make changes when I get stuck in a rut because I'm afraid.
I'm afraid of starting something new and not being able to keep up with it.
I'm afraid of making a change because I'm not sure what will happen when I step out of what I know.
I'm afraid because of the lack of support I think I might or might not have.
This morning I was reading in a devotional from YouVersion called Living Light 25 Days. I have been kind of slacking off on this too - fail - but today's question was
'Do you find it difficult to approach God when you're tempted or burdened with sin, or when things are are going wrong in your life?'
What?! Really this was today's question? Ok, I get it - speaking right to me!
The verse is Hebrews 4:16
'So let us come Boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive His Mercy, and we will find Grace to help us when we need it most!'
For real? For Real.
If we go to him for help, support, courage, motivation and Ask - He is more than willing to help, support, encourage and motivate us.
I don't know what your facing today - or this week or this year - but I do know that even in the midst of the run around and day in and day out cycle of life there is a loving, caring God that Wants to help you and me. It only take one little step, just one choice to being on our way to change in whatever areas of our life that we are boged down in - relationships, habits, attitude - whatever it is.
I would love to pray with/for you - just leave a comment below all comments go through me first before being published. I hope you are encouraged today - He loves you, He wants to help you, He wants to see you filled with joy in your life - not burdened down and disheartened.
