But as for me, I almost lost my footing. My feet were
slipping, and I was almost gone. Monday morning and my work looks like this
mountain range that lies before me. It seems as if the project keeps getting
bigger and bigger as it continues. So, you can imagine my frustration has two
main sources because on the one hand this project and the scope of it is much
bigger and more complicated than what I could anticipate. The battle for my little
girl also seems to have no end as days turn into weeks and weeks into months. I
wish I could just go to bed and when I wake it was just one terrible dream and
it all is back to normal. Some days I am fine and some days I am not. I guess
it is how our emotions have its ups and downs and as the enemy gets a blow in
when I least expect it. I am not someone that will go sit in a corner and cry. I
have always been a fighter, and I guess it had two outcomes. Sometimes it is
good and sometimes it is not so good, but in essence I can stand when the
storms come. Now this is not because I am strong, it is simply because some
days I turn to God with all my troubles and let Him guide and strengthen me and
some days I try it on my own - these days I fail always. Just as the Psalmist
writes, “I almost lost my footing”, I actually do and then I need to go “back
to the drawing board” and realign myself with my Father and with His Word and ask
the Holy Spirit for help and obviously to forgive me for grieving Him – again. Today
I pray this over us, my friend – “My health may fail, and my spirit may grow
weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; he is mine forever”. Do not
give up when the storms overwhelm you and do not lose hope. Come with me as we
seek God and seek His wisdom and His guidance. Let us meditate on this scripture
today and ask the Holy Spirit to make it part of us. Have an awesome day, my
friend.
