Like a Fish Out of Water!

Yes, the house needs to be cleaned: vacuum, laundry, sweep and mop kitchen, sweep and mop entry way, take out the garbage, fold and put away laundry…but none of that is motivating to me. However, the thought came to mind: Oh! I'll visit Steve at the office this afternoon! THAT was motivating! I want to get Nadia's hair done this morning after devotions and then I just thought about giving Steven his piano lessons right away in the morning, too! That is exciting!

The problem is that I went to bed last night without having written down my goals for today or this week. I NEED to do this! I have got to do this! There is no more "let's just see how the day works out." It is not motivating for me. Not having goals leaves me floundering like a fish out of water. I don't like it! 

Father, without vision the people perish is what You say. I agree! Thank You for helping me to have a vision, to have goals! Lord, I need You. Please forgive me for not getting up this morning at 5am. I had an excuse. However, an excuse an 2 dollars will only get me a cup of coffee!

Yalla Kawala spoke yesterday at church. He is from Liberia and survived the civil war there. He has an amazing testimony that he shared yesterday at church. Lord, we all have amazing testimonies because Your grace is amazing! Help me to share my testimony with others. Forgive me for not sharing about Yalla yesterday to anyone. I wanted so badly to share to my friends what I learned at church, but I didn't. I kept my mouth shut and didn't have much else to say either. 

Lord, my friends mean so much to me. I want to see them in heaven with me one day. There are only 2 options. Heaven or hell.  Help me to be a great witness for You. 

Father, glorify Your name through me.

Lord, please help me to be found running the race worthy of being called a Christ follower. Oh, Lord. Please help me. Your name be praised. AMEN!
