Good Morning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For it is [not your strength, but it is] God who is effectively at work in you, both to will and to work [that is, strengthening, energizing, and creating in you the longing and the ability to fulfill your purpose] for His good pleasure. -Philippians 2:13 AMP<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We often think it is completely up to us and that we need to be able to take care of it. What we forget is that it is not all up to us but we can fully lean into God and allow Him to lead us in a way that only He can. Too many times we decide how something will go when in reality it doesn\u2019t go at all like we envisioned. It is not up to us to carry the whole burden, it is not up to us to decide how every little detail will go. We have to be responsible with what is ours to do and then have the knowledge and the faith that God will carry the burden. When God carries our burden and He can effectively work through us, we gain energy and we gain quality of life. In what way can you hand your burdens over to God?<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cPrayer is an exchange. We leave our burdens, worries and sin in the hands of God. We come away with oil of joy and the garment of praise.\u201d -F.B. Meyer<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cGod wants to do a deep work in us before He can do a great work through us.\u201d -Christine Caine<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dad Joke of the Day:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I just read a book called \u201cHow to Survive Falling Down a Staircase.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s a step by step guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Have a great Friday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Good Morning!
