What Happens When Weariness Sets In...

Sometimes I just get weary... weary of the endless amount of dishes... weary of the endless amounts of laundry... weary of teaching and parenting my children... weary of striving to be a godly wife... weary of ministry...  even weary of striving toward the faith, even though God says:

'...I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the faith.'  ~ Jude 1:3b

It is at these times when I am so thankful for my Heavenly Father who is my strength and my refuge... I find such comfort in the ever loving arms of my Lord.

'Let, I pray, Your merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to Your word to Your servant.'  ~Psalm 119:76

Thank You, Father God, for your many mercies;  for these times of refreshing when I can just be still and know You;  for the great work You are doing in me ever conforming me to Your Son's image...
