Everybody's Talking at Me |
|
Do you ever feel like everyone from your boss to your family and neighbors are talking at you and all you want to do is SILENCE your mind?
I often feel this way when my two year old daughter poignantly exclaims MAMMA, MAMMA, MAMAA, MAAAAAAAAMMA!!!!!; In the background my one year old is crying because she's lost her pacifier, meanwhile a telemarketer is ringing my phone, and someone is knocking at the door...ALL at ONCE! In these moments I often want to pack my bags and run away. Yes, life can be daunting. No one ever said it would be easy. Don't get me wrong, life is awesome and I'm blessed beyond comprehension, but sometimes I do get overwhelmed.
I often ask myself what is the best way to handle situations such as these?
“For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.”
Romans 15:4
Wow, hope; I have hope in the scriptures???? So, why don’t I spend more time in the Word of God?
I often think I don’t have time to read my Bible and pray, or time just slips away.
There is no time like the present to get down on my knees and praise the Lord for His love and mercy!
The next time you face a situation that seems too BIG, just thank the Lord for it and ask Him to take over. Let Him work and see His great blessings unfold!
