Greetings!

In my last post I talked about understanding my issue with procrastination. I hesitate to use the term “my” procrastination, because that spirit does not belong to me. I am not claiming that over my life. I am learning that the words we speak are powerful. The Bible says that, “our tongues have the power of life, and death.” (Prov. 18:21) So, we have to speak life into our lives, and into the lives of others.

I am so glad that God loves us enough to never loosen His grip on us. And, even though that revelation anchors me I often struggle with knowing my place in Him. I mean…I know His word, and I believe His promises. Yet, I still find myself sometimes doubting what I know. How is that possible? It’s possible because we are human, and our physical (carnal) bodies are in constant conflict with our spirit. So, how do we fight? “We put on the Lord, Jesus Christ.” (Romans 13:14)

God has given us the Holy Spirit to help guide us. He helps us to stay on the narrow road. When we begin to wander too far, He calls us back. He brings to our remembrance those things that are already within us, and I am so grateful. I know that procrastination, or fear, or doubt, or whatever we choose to call it, has no place in our lives. For a moment, I forgot who I was…or, should I say, “Whose I was.”

I know that I am a woman of faith….and, my faith is strong. I know that my life…just as it is—has a purpose. I know that God loves me, and I know that there is no good thing that He will withhold from me. That’s what His word says, and He has no reason to lie to me.  The word says that, “In Him, we live and move and have our being.” (Acts 17:18)

So, when we are going through those times of uncertainty…we just have to remind ourselves of that.

Until next time…

Be blessed!
