What a Day!

Today had to be one of those days that you wish you could just start over. I slept one too many hours (six hours is my limit)and that isn't the best for me, but I managed and I continued with my daily chores. I had a lot of paper work and calls to make and I got right to it. My first mistake was that I didn't speak in tongues, read the word or pray. I listened to teachings while I was working and I also had to get my teaching ready for fellowship.

Although I spent a great deal of time with that, I just kept having to go back to the worldly things that had to get done. Ya know what, nothing has to get done. Yeah I know it does, but nothing is more important than taking the time out for our heavenly Father. It's not just what He wants, but why He wants it. It's DUH, so that we don't have "those" days. Honestly, no matter how hard "I" tried to get things straight, I couldn't do it. Every time I thought one thing was done, another problem arose. I mean nothing went right. So when you get right down to it, even those things that absolutely "must" get done in the world, they will never truly work out the way they should if you don't look first to God for His guidance, His direction and His comfort. I also remembered Proverbs 3: 5 & 6 "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths. This is one of the greatest verses of scripture in the Word of God. If it's the only one you know, you can apply it to every thing in your life.

Oh and about "those" things that absolutely must be taken care of. Well, ya know what, they'll keep. Yes they will. If you are spending time with your heavenly Father, truly in sync with Him, He'll take care of it. He will!

On the other hand if you do as I did today and try to take care of it all by yourself, well even if you resolve some things, look at your state of mind and see if it was worth it. It definitely was NOT worth it for me.

I will be starting my day tomorrow the "right" way. I will begin with my Heavenly Father.
