I have once again discovered a truth that I need to be continually reminded about. It is that when I take the time to spend with God, reading His word or praying or listening to what he is saying, I am given the strength that I need to be obedient in the things that I hear Him speaking. There is so much that I try to do that I fail at because I am doing it in my own strength and I fail again and again. God is so faithful to fill us with His power(The Spirit) to do all that He calls us to.
I find that it is kind of like what happens to me when I start exercising on a regular basis. I think that I don't have the energy to exercise because I am too tired from work or not enough sleep etc. But then I start setting the time aside to exercise and I begin to have more energy, I don't need as much sleep and I am more productive with my time.
I am doing these things now and I am amazed at how much God is giving to me to accomplish the things He has called me to do. I find that when I focus on the things of God my perspective also changes and I am less self driven and more other driven.
