"That’s why I’m learning to follow every “but I” with a “But God” statement of truth. If I catch myself saying “but I”… I need to see this as a trigger to redirect my discouraged heart with a “But God” truth." This is a quote from Lysa TerKeurst. As I have blogged about her before for being the writer of Made to Crave. Which I have begun again. I need all of the positive re enforcement I can get!
I made it almost my 1st day of Lent with no Sugar, Flour, Potatoes or Rice. I did have some Ice Cream last night. I did pray and tell God that I was sorry that I was having it but the Plant City Strawberry only comes around once a year!
Well I declare there is a but in that statement! How many buts do I use in a day to get away from what I know I should be doing? I am going to count today. I want to see what and how many excuses I am working at everyday. OK late for work!
Thank you God for your love! Thank you for giving me peace and understanding! I love you so much! Amen,
