Today began as one of those days when I had a bunch of plans but then unexpected appointments started to launch themselves into my schedule and every minute of planning/prep time got obliterated.
It wasn't a good feeling.
As I've been doing more and more over the past few years, I quickly turned to prayer as I began to feel overwhelmed, and God in turn pointed me back to his word.
"For this reason I bow my knees before the Father...that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith"
Exactly what I needed to hear.
His Spirit is in me, Christ dwells in my heart. In moments like these when I feel weak, I am that much closer to not relying on myself and relying only on Him, which is what I should have been doing from the start!
God is good: he wants to provide for us. He wants to be our strength.
