A quiet morning, a quiet heart
I took the time to quiet my heart before God this morning, and I was given a gem of wisdom from my reading that applies so well to what I am fixated on in these days -- my List of Doom, and how I am going to accomplish everything I need to and ought to, when I am so distracted and disorganized.
The verse was from Matthew 11:28-30:
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdended, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my bruden is light"
The accompanying devotional said this:
"As you learn to become a moldable, usable vessel in the hands of God, you'll discover that ministry is no longer a burden, no longer a list of thngs you have to do. Rather, it's a simple matter of listening for God's voice and then following where he leads."
Not that I'm going to throw away my List of Doom today, but I'm not going to let it have a hold on me! I'm going to go through the day today with a quiet heart and a sense that what I accomplish today will be what needed to be done, and I will be content.
Woo hoooo! :-D
My GIP today is in honor of the List of Doom, or rather the things I need to do today, but won't get all gloomy and stressed over if I don't. ;-)
