Sometimes I can go for days in an upbeat mode, seeing all that God has done for me. I can manage to get through anything I must tolerate. Today, however, I began to feel a bit overlooked by my Maker.
It’s not as though there were any catastrophes. It was a mild day compared to some in the past. But there were nagging worries, doubts, and fears that kept creeping into my mind. I prayed, of course. But they were still there, lurking. I kept feeling as though I could accomplish much more if I did not have to worry about these issues.
When I am like that, I cannot seem to think of a way out of a predicament. I am blocked from seeing any solutions. To be fair, I realize that not every issue has an immediate solution. Some problems that I face will last for a while until the time is right for them to be resolved. I need to figure out how to “see” that this is the mode I am in, and see it quickly enough to pray for help in getting through it or around it. I hate wasting a whole day doing only half as much as I know I could have done.
Dear God, I am sorry that I allowed my doubts, fears, and worries to keep me from the tasks you expected me to do; please help me to shrug off those feelings more quickly than I do now.
