Day by Day

After being mentally tired in 2012, dreading 2013 seems only nature. Unexpectedly, 2013 really has started off being a good year even though my year has started out physically spent, my spirit is renewed day by day.

The major difference in my life is to intentionally focus on other people; their joys, worries, and struggles rather than my own. I wish I could say I had noble intent but I didn't. I really just didn't want to focus on my own weariness anymore, almost like an escape mechanism, ALMOST.  When I try to increase the welfare of others, the Lord takes care of mine. Interesting, isn't it! When I put others need above mine, God renews my strength day by day- I hope this will be the secret weapon I hold on to in 2013.

 

Isaiah 40 –

Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, The creator of the ends of the earth. HE will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary, and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and fall: but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
