What's going on in my life?
Well,I finally got everything finished for the daycare. Well, not really FINISHED, but I am now licensed and things are in place as much as they can be. I still only have one kid, however. This wouldn't be so bad if we didn't need the income. So, I put an ad in the paper, and so far I have only had one person respond and they came by and they didn't make any decisions yet. Who knows if I will ever hear from them again....
It occurred to me last night that my prayers have really been lacking any substance lately. They have mostly been, "God please do this for me..." God has graciously been doing many of those things, but I am so undeserving.
I am going to try to focus more on accepting what God has given me, already. Just like with the daycare situation. Instead of continuously praying that God will bring someone to me, I have now decided I will pray that I will be more faithful to Him and be more accepting of what He does and know that God will indeed bring people my way, when the time is right.
I know it is not a bad thing to ask God for things, but I also realize I need to stop basing my entire prayer time on "give me, give me, give me" which is what I feel I have been doing lately.
I also feel like I have really been slacking on my time with God. Especially since Bennett was born, but I think it really started more when we moved here and I was working all night and sleeping all day.
My goal for this week is to make sure I am giving God more time. I was going to put giving God the time He deserves, but could I possibly fulfill that one? He deserves ALL my time and then some.
