Jesus, the source

Have you ever had one of those days when everything seems to go wrong ?  You slept in, now you have to rush around snd you trip over the cat as you are flying out the door?  Then before you can get into your vehicle your cell phone starts ringing... it's the Boss !  Now it's starting to rain and the dog is chasing you.

Days like this happen.  But we have a choice to either get upset and be that way for the rest of the day OR we can choose the put a smile on our face and start the day from that point on.  We make the choice to either follow our emotions and frustrations OR to acknowledge that I may have had poor start but I am going to make the best of my day and finish it well.

Our walk with the Lord can be like this. We get up in the morning and it seems like there is so much to do.. but instead of becoming overwhelmed by everything...

STOP . . . take a breath and begin to talk to the One who sees your day from the beginning to the end.
Invite Him to walk with you through every part of your day and let the Lord be everything you need.
Let JESUS be your source, your strength, and your joy.

Proverbs 3:5-6
English Standard Version
​5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
    and do not lean on your own understanding.
6 In all your ways acknowledge him,
    and he will make straight your paths.
