Good Morning,
đź’›As I woke up this morning it was a little rough to get moving. Â After vacation it never gets easy to get back into the routine. Â I will say I am thankful I am able to get up and go to work. Â I have a wonderful job and I am thankful for that as well. Â Many people would love to be able to get up and go to work. So I count this privilege a blessing. Â Of course if I won the lottery I would be fine to stay home, but I haven’t and don’t play it, which makes it pretty definite that I “WILL” work.
đź’›I have been praying about what to blog today and have been struggling lately to keep a positive mind. Â Don’t get me wrong I continue to serve Christ but my mind becomes clouded with things around me. Â The devil tries to get in my mind daily to keep my focus off of Christ and sad to say that sometimes he wins. Â There are times when I get so busy that my number 1 focus isn’t Christ. Â There are times when my mind is full of worry and what ifs.
           💛  I live a wonderfully blessed life but not a perfect life 💛         Â
💛 The devil fights my mind, my body and my outlook.  These are the times when I need to TRUST.  The definition for TRUST is: a firm belief in the reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something.
đź’›On a daily basis we trust in something or someone. Â I trust my car to get me to work. Â I trust my electricity to be on so I can get ready. Â I trust the water to run so I can clean up. Â But most importantly is the TRUST I place in Christ to help me thru the day and many times to carry me thru the day. Â I TRUST the promises in his word that he has given me to remind me that I am not alone and he is with me. Â This too is a blessing!
đź’›BLESSED IS THE MAN THAT TRUSTETH IN THE LORD,
AND WHOSE HOPE THE LORD IS. Â Â Â Jeremiah 17:7 KJV
💛 Just listening to gospel music or reading uplifting things about Christ and his word can pull my focus back to the one who is in control.
💛 Marriages go thru valleys.  Walks with Christ go thru valleys.
💛 It is in the valleys that we grow.
PRAYÂ more~~~~~READÂ his word more~~~~~LOVEÂ more
💛 May I never forget to do these on a daily basis so I can be the wife I should be, Mom I should be,  Memaw I should be, friend I should be and the Christian I should be.
💛 Everyday is a new day.  Let’s give Christ our best starting today.
💛 I pray this blog has encouraged you to TRUST in Christ more today.
💛 Thanks for taking time out of your busy day to spend some time with me.
I am…

Today, I completely identified with the piece you wrote. Usually, when the enemy is clouding my mind, I feel like I’m the only one this happens to. I struggle with worry, and negative self talk often. But thanks to prayer, and the mercy of Jesus Christ, I’m beginning to overcome this struggle. God Bless you & your family, and thank you for sharing this blog today. ~ Sharon ~ đź’ś
