Have your wife’s back.  My wife and I had a fight this week that centered around her feeling that I didn’t have her back in a certain situation.  The scenario had to to with our kids and I basically let her be the “bad cop” without stepping in to help her out.  Lesson of the week:  cover your wife’s 6 at all times!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Not much mumble chatter this morning, but a lot of work got done! Shout out to BlueBird for working with me today.

And the Word:

Are you weary, or tired, or broken down, or discouraged?

2 temptations you will face:

  1. God must not be watching. Is he even aware of what’s going on?
  2. I pray and I pray, but he hasn’t lifted a finger. He must not care. Is God even good?

My problem: I think I can understand what God is doing. There are things I know to be true, and there are 10,000 other things GOD IS DOING that I’ll never see or understand.

Remember Isaiah 40:
“The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable.
THEY WHO WAIT ON THE LORD SHALL RENEW THEIR STRENGTH;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and be weary;
they shall walk and not faint.”

TRUST GOD, he will give you rest through his WORD, his SPIRIT, and his PEOPLE.
