Day 41

I need You
I miss You
Please straighten out my priorities
Putting You first
Then whatever is important to You next
I’m tired of not using my time wisely
Help me to not feel like everything has to be perfect

Day 40

Thank you for giving me inspiration
When I really need it
And I don’t even have the faith
To think You would answer right away
Praise You Lord
I Love You

Day 39

You are so faithful
Why do I leave You so often
I just walk away
Like nothing’s happened
Like I never knew You
I don’t want to forget
You are everything I need
But I keep wanting less than You
It’s appealing but it leaves a bad taste
You didn’t always look the best
But I’ve never tasted a sweeter thing than Your presence
Surrounding me
I love You so much
God I commit myself again
To You and Your cause
Not my pleasure or rest
But Your glory
Refresh my mind
I’ve been selfish
I push You aside
I want to be back
By Your side
Walking hand in hand
Love me

Day 38

I just got done
Now there’s more to do
I can’t keep putting stuff on myself
An essay, a speech
Now another essay
What do I do
Do I keep pushing
Keep writing?
How much farther can I go
Before it’s too much
You have so much for me
I almost wish You trusted me less
I don’t want to be lazy
I don’t want to procrastinate
But how do I relax and take time for myself
With work yet to be done
HELP ME
Teach me to rest

Day 37

You always love me
And You always come through
Remind me to ask for help
To ask for grace
I need you
I want to express myself
Asking for my needs to be met
Because You want to help me
You want to bless and love me
Don’t let me forget
I can turn to You
You are good in all things
But You like to be asked
Whoever heard of a passive God
Humble and willing
You are so much greater
Then I’ll ever be
Praise You Lord
You never cease to amaze

Sabboth

You might have noticed that I haven't posted in a few days. I won’t make any excuses but I just want to explain where I’m at right now. I’ve been really busy lately with school, church, and work. Right now I’m trying to prioritize and figure out what I need to be involved in and what I need to leave. I will continue to write for the foreseeable future incase your worried about that. However, I do need to take a break every once and a while. So if I don’t write for a day or two don’t worry I should be back soon.
The title says Sabbath. To me it doesn’t mean a designated day of rest but merely a time for me to relax and build my strength again. Sometimes this means not focusing on writing and focusing on sleep, reading, spending time with God and playing games. I believe God took a day of rest to show us that it’s okay to take a break from work. Not only is it okay but it is necessary if we want to function properly. I’m trying to fallow this not to be lazy but to do the best I can when I am working. Along with enjoying life to the fullest.
