Feeling run down like me?

Do you ever notice how you start to feel run-down when you’re in a busy season of life? The early stages always seem blissful…a new baseball season, new teams at work, new projects, a recommitment to your fitness, etc.

But then a couple of months go by and you’re thinking…what the crap?!?! Where is my peace? When was the last time the room was silent?

The solution is captured in Isaiah 40:31…

"But those who hope in the Lord

will renew their strength.

They will soar on wings like eagles;

they will run and not grow weary,

they will walk and not be faint."

When I start to feel run down, it really has absolutely nothing to do with the business of my life, but rather has everything to do with my lack of prioritizing God above all.

He fills our cups. In Him there is strength for every season - even the busy ones.

My new thing I started saying is “I trust you God”. Then, if possible, I worship him in that moment. I turn on 99.1 Joy FM.

I’m writing this because I need to remind myself of this. Where did my daily reading go? My regular study? If I’m being honest, I am more connected to God all throughout my day than EVER before and it’s AWESOME. Praying constantly, in conversation with God non-stop.

But, when life gets crazy,, I can’t always hear God as clearly as I can when I’m in His word daily.

So if you want a little extra dose of the Lord’s strength today, read with me. One of my favorite things to do is read 1 Proverb a day based on the day of the month.

If nothing else, join me in reading Proverbs throughout July and watch yourself soar on wings like eagles without growing weary ❤️.

My favorite bible I recommend is the Quest study bible. And I love the Bible app You version NIV. You can even have the person speak the Proverb to you!

Yours,
