Recently, I’ve been a little frustrated. It seems everything I plan does not work out.
Simple things like planning family dinner only to find out that my grandkids had the same thing for lunch that day to more complex things such as having a financial plan waylaid on the monthly by things breaking and needing replaced.
I realize I have not been seeking the Lord in everyday details like I should. When I don’t, things don’t go well. For example, the other day at work a situation came up I felt I didn’t handle well.
Immediately Ask For Help
Normally, I’d stew about it for days; but this time, as soon as I saw the problem, I asked for heavenly help. My Father brought an idea into my mind of what I could do. I did it. It worked out better than I could have imagined. I did not lose any sleep over the situation. Win-win!
I realize I am powerless on my own to run my day, or even my life, well. I need His direction and guidance every step of the way.
First Things First
My goal is to be fruitful. Spending time with Him is the first step.
