Can't do this myself-You are the only one who can undo what I have become!

Ecclesiastes 4: 9 Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor. 10 For if either of them falls, the one will lift up his companion. But woe to the one who falls when there is not another to lift him up. 11 Furthermore, if two lie down together they [e]keep warm, but how can one be warm alone? 12 And if one can overpower him who is alone, two can resist him. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart.

How do I spend my time? That is the question that is from this weeks EWomens devotional. How we should spend our rime with fellow believers. I have found that since I have been involved more in church and attending my women's bible study it has helped me in my walk with Jesus. I have seen a significant change in myself as far as who I want to spend time with and who I don't and what I choose to do. Before I was on my journey it was a lot of loneliness and sadness. Not that I don't have sadness now but it is a different kind of sadness. It is more of a sadness of incompleteness of my own life and the frustration of not hearing God when He speaks to me. (He spoke yesterday! Thank you Lord for the blessing you have given John and I that he now may have closure in this accident.)

It is interesting that the one devotional I have speaks of how you spend your time and the other is about being worn out...I often feel tired and can't seem to get the energy I need to do what I need to do as far as exercise. I know it is an excuse that I have played out way to many times. I pray today for energy and strength. Knowing that once I do start to age more that I will never be as energetic as I am now-and I hope that when I start the journey of weight loss again in the new year I will gain more energy to take better care of myself and my family. I will be no use to my family dead!

Thank you God for all of your blessings, help me to not waste a minute of my time. Show me the nuggets of time you have set aside for me to share your word in my everyday interactions. Help me to be strong to show Your glory to others and how amazing your grace and love are!
