Again and again, God has never failed to refresh me, revive my spirit and relieve me of my burden whenever I am in His presence. Be it in my Quiet Time or in church, He has always, always renew me for the challenges of tomorrow.
Today is a good, if not better, example than most days of this. I have had 2 weeks of the most stressful and hectic time at work ever. And today, the agents were up to their old tricks again; bringing me to within a fraction of losing my temper for the 4th time.
Thank God, He brought ways to help me cool down so much so that I was okay by the end of the day. But better than that, prayer service help me focus on Him and His wonderful ways and plans. When I started to worship Him, immediately all my burden and stress from work just fell away! It all meant nothing anymore.
As I spent time praising Him and praying to Him, all my work troubles did not come to haunt me, nor did any of it still stress me out. In His presence, all my worries and problems seem and are so insignificant. Only His grace, mercy and power really mattered…
And towards the end, He also gave me encouragement to face tomorrow! Armed with His spirit, I now look eagerly to tomorrow when I’ll take on all the problems head on! They no longer worry me, in fact I now look eagerly to it. With Him in me, truly none and nothing can stand in my way. I say to issues, "Bring it on!"
How powerful truly is He who is within me. In an instant, He not only relieve my tension, He gave me peace which I had not had for 2 weeks plus now. In another instant, He can arm me with the strength to face anything. To give me enough strength not just to endure it, but to excel in it. He strengthens me even when I don’t know I need strengthening.
No doubt, all that I accomplish at work will be because of Him and Him alone.
