Currently on day four of a six day work streak. Haven't even started work today and I'm already depressed about it. The people I work with today are mostly people that just grate on my spirit, to the point that I don't want to bother trying to "shine Jesus" to them. I just want to get away from them. But that is amazing concept right there - the joy of the Lord is our STRENGTH. Double salute! If we delight in the Lord, we will be not only be joyful - giving us a reason to go on - but we will have the ability to go on! And all we have to do is trust in Him, and He will help us. No ritual dances to make the rain fall, no bloody sacrifices to get Him to consider our most desperate pleas. Just the face to face, day to day, ultimate trust of a child before a loving and powerful Father. Wow. Thanks for the reminder.
