Pray the Hardest, when it is the hardest to pray

            I am doing it. I am going crazy and it's only been a week for me. I don't know how I am going to make it the other two weeks. I don't know if I can take it if it gets worse. I knew the world was off  too easy of a start in 2020. We were getting full of ourselves, weren't we? Away from people. Away from family. Away from Love. Away from God. It's sad how hard this really is. It is sad how we need the rush of everyday left to get us to sleep or make us feel worthy.               Personally, I am trying to do things and be creative but it is driving me nuts. I have a few hobbies that I am trying to start. Maybe if I knew when this all would end I would enjoy things a little bit more. Right there, lays the problem. I hate worrying about things. I want to make plans but if they are long plans I might not be able to get them done because I don't know how long this will last.         ...

This is a prayer for this day and time. I just picked out a few lines from these two chapters that popped out at me and that I really needed right now. Hope it helps you too!  Dear Daddy, Give me relief from my distress. Search my heart and let me be silent. I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly. Trust in the Lord. I run for cover to You. You welcome us with open arms. We dwell in safety because You surround us with a shield. You will bless the righteous.  In Your name, Amen

In God's Eyes You Are Irreplaceable. You are irreplaceable because He made only One of you.  You are beautiful, gentle, talented, and kind hearted.  No one can ever replace you even if they try. You are one in a million in God's eyes.  In God's eyes you are irreplaceable. You are beautiful.  You have the color of your eyes for a reason. Your hair is that color for a reason. God made your skin that color because He needed it that color.  God needed to use you like that. He has a speical plan for you. In God's eyes you are irreplaceable. You are gentle. You don't fight back but turn your back. You try to encourage even when they don't Hear you. You don't yell but use a soft voice because That gets their attention for you. God is that gentle and He wants you to be Like Him. In God's eyes you are irreplaceable. You are very talented. God has given a special and unique talent For a reason. You are at that place and job for a reason. God knew you could handle ...

During this time of our lives, it might be crazy. You might be out of work or working from home. Your kids might be out of school and having to do it at home online. You maybe working at work but without people or children. Whatever your case may be, here are some things God reminds us to do: -Chew on Scripture day and night. -Bear fruit every month because we are trees. -Always be in blossom (aka always keep growing in the Word.) -Worship God in an adoring embrace. -Run towards God, not away from Him. -Celebrate the good times and small things in awe. -Rest so we can stand tall and steady in these hard times. While we are doing these things, what is God doing for us? -Watches over the way of the righteous. -Shields us on all sides. -Ground our feet. -Lift our heads high so we can see Him in everything. These are just the first two chapters of Psalm. I am trying to read a chapter a day to keep me sane. Anyone want to join me?
