Power Supply
"But you, beloved, build yourselves up in your most holy faith; pray in the holy Spirit" ~ Jude 1:20
There comes a time when we all need to recharge and just take it in. We are always on the go. Heading from one thing to the next and not stopping along the way. That is how I felt yesterday. All these things going on and new decisions to be made. I needed to step back and just take the time to charge.
God does not want us to be stressed when it comes to the life. It is not His want for us. We put more on ourselves then God ever will. I know I do for sure. We get wrapped up on how or what we are to be doing then doing it and living it. It really is not as complicated as we make it out to be.
There are times where this life can get complicated and it is not always in our hands but those are the times when it is best to step back and take the time. I am not even so sure when those times are happening do we need to open the bible or pray extra. I think honestly those times we need to just step back and take it in and relax.
God does not have a number in His head to the amount of times we need to pray, read the bible or say the rosary. All of those things are for us and we create that stress of what we need or should be doing. Yes, He wants us to turn to Him but there is not a set amount of times or ways to do it. If you are feeling stressed out that you are not doing your best, understand that is coming from within yourself.
When we start to feel this, stop and step back. Realize what you have done and where you have come from. Look at what you have done and gain that strength and power from those good things and let the bad go by the wayside. It is about what we focus on and we either gain or lose power from it. Many things drain us and you need to find out what gives you power vs what does not.
Start to power up by making a list that makes you gain and keep that handy. When you start to feel drained look at that list and start to do some of them. It does not just have to be spiritual things. It may be just doing a hobby that you enjoy. Everything in life will take a hit if you do not have the power to supply to it.
Until tomorrow, God Bless, and find a power source.
