Psalm 127:2 He gives to his beloved sleep. I realized this morning why he gives his beloved sleep. The last few days have been very stressful for me. I have not really been able to sleep well. I have had emotions going on in me that I did not even realize that I had. The vile that was coming out of me towards Father makes me so ashamed this morning. Last night I lay down again to try to sleep and it just would not come, I was so tired. I prayed I asked Father what to do. He reminded me of a pain killer I had in my cupboard from an old injury. At first I did not want to take it. I heard that loving voice again, so I took it. As I laid there and felt the tensions just go away and the sleep comes it was so comforting. This morning Lamentations 3:23 comes out so loud and clear. Great is his faithfulness, his mercy is new every morning. As I sit here at my computer I implore each and every one of us not to look to our failures but to Fathers successes. Not to look to what we have done to mess things up, but to Fathers ability to fix our mess ups in a way that will make all things new. I cannot go back and “fix” the damage I may have caused by being so tired I was not thinking straight, as a matter of fact, I was not thinking at all but reacting. Today is a new day. Today Father has new adventures for each of us. I encourage each and every one of us to walk in that newness today. To realize that Father is in control. That he works in people’s lives each day. Let him work in yours. Go in peace Michael |
