Tired

Tired, are you tired of working? Are you tired of the routine? Everyday we are faced with something in our lives that we feel we are tired of. Maybe so. Maybe we are tired, maybe we need a change in our lives or maybe we need to slow down and get some rest.


A lot of you know that I have been out of work for about 6 months. I know a lot of you know how much damage was done in NW Arkansas. Well I thought, ok, now I can go make some money. Wrong. I came down with what I think is strep throat. I feel everytime I think I am going to do something good something happens and I am not able to. I am tired of the day to day, wondering if I am ever going to get another job. There have been times when I wanted to give up, give up on what God has called me to do, but He always reminds me that I am not the only one that He has called. He has called each of us to do His work. The problem with this is that there are so many people out there that are tired. They are tired of fighting, tired of trying, and are ready to give up.


We live in a day were we are going to get tired. We can get tired of seeing the ads that run across our tv's. We get tired of going to work(I might if I had a job). The point is that we all get tired. We have all said or thought why do I need to do everything, why do I need to be the one? Because God said you are the one to do this for Him, and you are the one.


This is a verse that I think might help, it helps me. Galations 6:9 and let us not grow weary while doing good for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.


Have you lost heart in what God wants you to do or have you lost heart in what you want to do?

Let me put it another way are-you tired of trying to do what you want to do instead of what doing what God wants you to do?


Isaiah 14: 3 It shall come to pass in the day that the Lord gives you rest from your sorrow and from your fear and the hard bondage in which you serve.
