I am back on the worry/anxiety train. Woke up at 3:45 a.m. with no return of sleep. I have allowed some things to back up at work and home improvements costs are greater than planned. Please pray for my return to contentment/peace found only in my Father's arms.
2 Peter 3:11 Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live good and Godly lives. . .
I assure you that I had typed the prayer request BEFORE I read today's Blackaby's devotional. Blackaby challenges Believers to consider what kind of persons ought we to be. In light of the impending judgement and destruction on Christ's return, how should we be living our lives?
Purchasing or praying? Buying or Bible study? Living the high life or loving others?
I know that I have work expectations and requirements, and God expects me to be a good financial steward . But my prayer would be that a burden for the lost is the reason why I cannot get back to sleep at 3:45 a.m., not a report that is due or contractor that needs to be called.
May my focus become more eternal and less temporal.
