Disaster

Wow it is crazy how quickly you can go for a great day to this day were you are just ready to throw in the towel and say you win, I quiet. Just thought of a verse that might apply....Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:30-31 Today has been super rough on me. It is the first day that I have been super frustrated as a teacher to the point that quieting actually crossed my mind. Horrible I know... what happens that lets it get this far. I don't ever think I could be like God in the sense that He gives and He forgives and He loves on us and we just throw it in His face by knowingly living in sin or by openly rejecting Him. Yet He still loves us and continues to do all that for us. I have tried so hard to be like that but I feel like today I have nothing left to give. It is all gone, my forgiveness thrown to the side, everything thing I have given taken for granite, and all my love brushed off and laughed at. But God told Isaiah that when days like today come, when I have grown tired and weary, when I am stumbling trying to make it through on my own, that if I will stop and place my hope in the Lord that it is Him and Him alone that can renew my strength. Christ can give me wings to soar and energy to run this race without growing tired. And that is it right there. I have been trying to make it on my own today, not once did I stop and ask God, the one passionately pursing me, the one who loves me and will fight for me, the one who can give me unending strength, for help instead I took it upon myself and my own strength to find a way to make it through the day and I fell flat on my face. But it is not to late for Christ to save the day. I mean it is only 3:30. So I am going to place my hope in my loving Father who wants to take care of me. And I am going to run into his open arms and receive that much need embraces, that reassurance, that calm that only He can provide for me. If you had a day like mine maybe you should do the same.......
