2 Samuel 8 & 9; 1 Chronicles 18 &19; Matthew 21

This morning I just feel achy and tired and oh crap I'll say it...OLD...
Worked a wedding all day Saturday and probably abused my body then yesterday drove 2.5 hours one way to a family gathering, celebrating a birthday that is...well let's just say not as far off as it once appeared....then 2.5 hours back and my body this morning is just reluctant.....and my mind is sour....two busy weekends in a row I guess....so to push through....doesn't help we almost over-slept and that it is just dreary out.....

The readings today seeing David knowing all his successes, his victories are from God...knowing that because he sought after God's heart always, God never left...He doesn't leave...no matter how fatigued I am today He's here..to remember that and ask for help all day long...to know there is nothing I can do on my best most rested days without Him....and then in Matthew 21: 21-22 But Jesus was matter-of-fact: "Yes—and if you embrace this kingdom life and don't doubt God, you'll not only do minor feats like I did to the fig tree, but also triumph over huge obstacles. This mountain, for instance, you'll tell, 'Go jump in the lake,' and it will jump. Absolutely everything, ranging from small to large, as you make it a part of your believing prayer, gets included as you lay hold of God."

I need enough faith to push through today....
