Have you ever got bogged down in the muck and mire
of the day.. You arise early in the morning with energy to ‘get those things
done’ that have been facing you. And with determination you decide to get shower, …oops the telephone rings….nothing really important …. but you reason with yourself…”I will make
myself a cup of coffee …and just sit for a minute and listen to the morning
news”….1/2 hour passes then an hour…..
Then you say to yourself ‘I need to do my devotions, get some Word into me’…..I’ll just go get
another cup of coffee and maybe a tad-bit to eat. Guess
I’ll throw a load of laundry in and at least get something started for the
day. Well, I will sort through these
magazines. Wow, this is a great article,
so you sit down and read for a few minutes, reasoning with yourself you are
getting something spiritual. Wow, I know
I need to get some things done but oh, I feel so tired, maybe just a little
catnap and then I will get up and get started
I do not know who wrote this but it was on a floppy disk and it is so relevant to my lilfe at times that I thought it would be enjoyed.
Each day is a new day and we awake with choices...."What will we do". I am sure like myself I have a plan but most of the time it changes especially if you walk with the Lord and He directs. My mornings have looked like the above writing and I laughed as I read it. Good intentions always, but sometimes they go " a muck". He always has a perfect plan but sometimes I find myself wasting a day and not really accomplishing a lot.
