Highs -n- Lows Living with the Disease

Another Beautiful Morning!
Saturday was a long day.  I didn't get home from Iowa until around 11pm.  It was a good day and it was nice to see Nancy and Will.

Yesterday, I had another good day...I went to FPC in Rochester after picking Kaylee up.  We went to City Looks to get my hair cut after.  Then before heading home we picked up food from a Chinese restaurant.

Today, I am heading into Rochester for work at MLC...I am working from 9-3 today...hoping to catch up on my work. 

I am also making an appointment for Paul to see the Dr.  His knees and hip is giving him trouble a lot of trouble.  I am hoping he can get in soon...

I am so thankful for all I can do...

When We Feel Burned Out
By Charles Stanley
Read | Isaiah 40:27-31

Almost all of us can recall times when our bodies and minds have felt tired from manual labor and mental strain. If these conditions become constant or extreme, it is very easy for us to become burned out.

Fortunately, we have been provided with specific encouragement for such times of exhaustion. Today’s Scripture reading reveals three reassuring truths about God and His faithfulness in our times of weakness.

First, we learn that the Lord “does not become weary or tired” (v. 28). Therefore, we can call upon a God who won’t ever run out of power. His strength has never decreased and will not decrease in the future. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Heb. 13:8).

Second, we find that “He gives strength to the weary” and power to those who are not mighty (Isa. 40:29). Our loving heavenly Father does not frown upon us when we are weak. Instead, He embraces us and lifts us up when we are unable to help ourselves.

Finally, we are given an incredible promise. Verse 31 reads, “Yet those who wait for the LORD will gain new strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles, they will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weary.”

The next time you feel too tired or frustrated to go on, remember this: Our God is not exhaustible. Instead, He is faithful to provide a supply of endless divine strength to those who are willing to wait for His perfect timing. In all things, He gives exactly what we need for the moment at hand.

Looking Forward to Another Great Day....
