Day 23

When one agrees to a challenge like blogging every day for 31 days on a particular subject, one does so without knowing what those 31 days will actually bring.

Mine have brought some excitement, some insight, some sleep-less nights (lots of exhaustion), and the last couple of days major headaches (tonight’s a migraine)…

So, as I type this, I’m distracted by the pounding in my head, the fact that my neck & back also hurt, and my eyes want to close.

But, I haven’t failed yet, and don’t plan to today.

Because, even on days when my body is against me, God is still sovereign. Even on days when I’m hurting or upset (physically or emotionally), God has my life in His hands. Even on days when I am so distracted by the troubles of the world, God is patiently waiting for me to turn back and focus on Him.

So, that is what I am doing now, in these few quiet moments at the end of my day, before turning in early for once this month.

“Each day the Lord pours His unfailing love upon me, and through each night I sing His songs.”
– Psalm 42:8
