Dear One,
I’ve been watching you. Your hard work hasn’t gone unnoticed. I see the way you meet the needs of your family and friends–serving from dawn till dusk without complaint. You search out opportunities to be My hands.
I’ve been listening to you. I hear the words you offer in prayer for your husband, children, and loved ones. Your gentle encouragement soothes weary hearts in a world that needs more of Me. You search for words that offer Life.
I’ve been waiting for you. Sometimes, Child, you’re consumed with life’s demands and responsibilities. Instead of leaving room for me, I’m pushed aside by your earnest desire to do what is right. Make time for me and “all these things will be added unto you”. Search for Me.
Love always,
Your Father
Thanks for the reminder! I enjoy serving God by volunteering and giving of my time, but often fall short of time spent with God.
Hi Patty,
This post was a reminder for me, too. 🙂 I often struggle with the Mary-or-Martha syndrome. More often than not, I need to stop running in circles and just run to the Lord. Blessings!
I am always saying most of us are Mary’s trapped in a Martha body…wanting time to spend with out Lord but always aware of the work that needs done around us. God bless you!
