December 30 –- Psalm 87:7-“All my fresh springs shall be in Thee”

Remember to read MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST for Today 

 

  DRYING UP

 

I felt I was drying up today

My enthusiasm was almost lost.

God said, “Child, I think this is wonderful

Now I’ll have a turn to be boss”

 

I realized I was fully trusting

In my natural abilities to perform.

God said, “Child, when did you receive them?

I gave them all to you when you were born.”

 

It is nothing great or wonderful

To use what God has placed inside

The full impact of your trusting

Happens if you’re stretching outside.

 

Stretch outside of your familiar comfort.

Try to do something different and new.

Maybe you were born to make a difference

Use a part of yourself never used.

 

Stretch beyond your endurance.

Move beyond what you think and know.

You will be delighted with the difference.

God will teach you how enthusiasm grows!

JOURNAL JOTTINGS: Have you ever felt that you could not go on one more minute and then received a supernatural power surge? Journal the difference that surprise event made in your life. Make note of the contrast between your helplessness and your invigoration. From where did that Power come?

 

DEAR LORD, Thank you that when I come to the end of myself, You are there. Forgive me for the times that I have held on to my own strength, when I should have been relying on Yours. Remind me of Your Presence when my strength is gone. Remind me of Your Power, when I feel strong also. In Jesus’ Name, AMEN
