I loose balance the second i find it.
More is required from me.
I cannot give it, so I have to trust God to work through me
And trust Him it will all be alright
I understand I do not have to achieve and perform to be loved
But i cannot relax and not feel guilty
In heaven I will have eternity to rest
So should I not put all myself into what God calls me to do now
The problem is even though i feel guilty relaxing. I still do it
If I don't I can't think straight.
But when I do, I relax for too long and neglect responsibilties.
I can't even get my thoughts down staright today
If you're reading you're probably a bit lost.
I seek sympathy. But I feel so selfish, I'll be honest anyway.
I am so all over the place.
In a sense it's laughable.
Anyway. God reigns and rules
Jesus is coming for me. I trust Him to do that
Can I trust myself to be ready for Him?
Ummm
Umm
Oh Dear
I'm stuck there...

I must confess that it's been a while since I checked in on you. It's been crazy at work. I'm so glad God has been helping you see through all Satan's lies that he's wanted you to believe the last few weeks. Have to wonder if God needed to get you alone to think about everything--until today, I'm the first one to respond to any of your posts.
Will make sure I pray for you--and please pray for me. My procrastination has made grading papers for classes a real problem. I know I have to do them in the next week while we have Thanksgiving Day break, but it's so much easier to dread getting started and then avoid them.
So, remember you've got a lot of us out there--even though you haven't heard from us for a while.--Jeff
Hey Shasa!
Just caught up with your blog. You really need to give yourself a break. Don't let the devil tie you up in knots -he loves to pile on the pressure e.t.c.
So try and relax and remember : GOD HAS NOT ASKED US TO BE SUCCESSFUL, JUST FAITHFUL.
I know the word 'just' there makes that sound easy and we all know its not, but if we were all brilliant and prefect all the time, then we wouldn't need a Saviour. God already knows all our weaknesses and it is when we are weak that we find we need Him more and then through Him we are made truely strong.
Let God's grace take the weight off of your shoulders, that you are feeling. We cannot add anything to what He did on the cross and in a way..how dare we even try.
He knows we can't do it. That's why He's given us His Holy Spirit. It's not the fruits of Lisa, or the fruits of Shasa, but the fruits of the Spirit.
God is always ready to work in our lives even when we are asleep, we all just need to wake up each day and join Him in our day. He wants us to choose to follow Him along the way, one day at a time.
Take it easy Shasa -see you soon
Lisa
