The view from the porch today has been great! I was greeted this morning by one of the deer that I like to watch. It’s been very relaxing…
…and frustrating time this morning. Frustrating as I have looked back over this past week. I’m very tired. In need of some good quiet time.
I’m at a place where I need to stay more focused on God than ever. I realize during this very tiring time in life I need to look to Him. I need to look to God for His provision, help, and counsel. I need to resist the temptation to look for help from sources other than God.
Since Wednesday, my focus in the Scripture has been on 2 Chronicles 14 – 16. These are some strong chapters looking at the life of King Asa.
It’s been hard to mine the nuggets from this week. For several years now I have been desiring a time to get away by myself… in the mountains, on the beach, at a conference. Some place… any place… just so I can think… be still… be refreshed… and take some time to vision cast for my life. I need a plan. God’s still small voice is hard to hear right now with all the extra noise.
- It’s real easy to let yourself get run down.
- Take moments to be still and quiet.
- I need vision… Without a vision God’s people perish.
- Look to God only.
