Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Isaiah 41:13 For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.
Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Some days are just hard. I know that not every day can be perfect, or even close but why can't I seem to string together more than one at a time? Seems like every good day is followed by a string of bad ones. Distance, anger, impatience. I get so tired of living in apprehension of what it will be like each day. God tells me there's got to be some reason for all of this. (Proverbs) He tells me I'm not fighting this battle alone(Isaiah) even though it often feels that way.
When I read that verse from Matthew I picture myself sitting with Him- my head on His shoulder, His arm around me just holding me, giving me rest. I think my problem is I'm getting back up too soon. I should sit with Him longer.

Yes, resting in Him. It's nice knowing that when bad things happen, He will take care of it for us. So... BSF??? Monday nights??? :)
