Weary, beat up, and burned out, I had reached a point where I was questioning everything. Especially that persistent whisper of God. Keep moving, keep going, one more time. There are days I am so overwhelmed, too many things going on, yours, theirs, mine. I live in a circle with no end. Yes, earth life can be overwhelming, stressful, to point of wanting to quit. This is why every morning I start my day in the Word, Scripture devotionals, my time with God. I pray, Father God, guide me today to do all things at will bring glory and honor to Yôu. Amen. Yesterday , alone I rode 5 horses cleans 5 stalls , cleaned water barrels, changed and washed sheets on bed. Went got my truck hand washed, had gone a road with new tar UGH, went to grocery store, feed store, unloaded feed , loaded 2 trailers . Hauled trash, took a break, shower, went back out mowed yard, and plowed arena. Another shower then bed. This morning fed, move horses to turn outs, Head to moms, cook dad breakfast, her beauty shop and nails today, I will haul their 14 barrels of trash, change sheets on their bed. Come home ride 5 horses, cleans stalls, etc, etc, etc.
Searching this morning Psalm 18:19 He brought me into a spacious place, He rescued me becauseHe delighted in me. I linger in Psalm 18, making its laments my own, longing for its promises to be true. Needing fresh air, I walked to mail box, took in the sunrise, praying as I went. Don't you have enough of everything? Do Yôu néed me to keep posting my daily journey, sharing with others. I'm pretty busy. The path going back to the house, I stood looked back to our place, arena, barn, house, fresh mowed yard, which Jesus brought to me. I listened, recalled the words I'd read. And believed, He delighted in me. Did I trust His calling, to be His vessel? I asked Him 2003 to heal me of cancer. And to guide me to become a vessel for Him. Could I rest in this place , HOME, enjoy the fact that in spite of my questions and doubt, He delight in me? In this place, HOME, God gave me a picture of what my life could be if I said no to all the things that clutterd it, so I could say yes to His purpose for me. Yes, there are times I am overwhelmed, but I AM BLESSED, at 63 years old, I am able and willing to be a vessel for Jesus, I can do all things through Christ who strengthend me. Is there an area in your life where you feel crowded by the questions and doubts? Where you are questioning God's calling? Ask Him to bring you to a place, where you can feel His delight in you. For it is WITH God ALL things ARE possible.
have a VERY BLESSED SPIRIT FILL THANKFUL Friday, and Memorail weekend ALL, PLEASE REMEMBER the reason for Memorial Day. Pray for the families of loved ones lost GOD LOVES YOU!! And so do I !!

Ladyjockey- Thank you for all you do. You have blessed us with HIS word and your loving example.
I don't post often enough a thank you for your work here, but know that I look for and take to heart your posts.
Please just remember, you are enough. Even if you feel like not getting everything on your list accomplished, you are a blessing and YES, God delights in you. Every Day... Even when you feel you need a break. Now whether or not you take that break is up to you. LOL I'm guessing you don't do that often. :) Love and Hugs to you!
Happy Memorial Weekend everyone! Stay safe and God Bless!

Thank you for your work and your words.  I enjoy them very much, please know that.  I wish I had your gift of speaking / praying to God as you do.  I told my husband, I don't know "how" to pray.  He told me I just need to talk to God, he will hear me. So that is what I do.  Thank you for your post.
