EVERYDAY LIFE 

EP #05

This week was hard. I was struggling to be motivated, some days I didn't want to get out of bed. Have you felt like this lately?

​

I have been cooking and eating healthy. I have been going to bed on time. I have kept on top of washing and cleaning. I have paid my bills, everything 'adulting' involves. I have been keeping up with my devotions and spending time with God more than any other time in my life....why do I still feel tired, worn out and at times lazy?! 

​

Romans 12:1-2 MSG came to mind when I was spending time with God this week, it is all about the every day tasks in life...

PLACE YOUR LIFE BEFORE GOD

'So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him.' 

​

The normal things, the every day life; sleeping, eating, working and even going to the gym....these are things I have been trying to do in my own strength, and I can't anymore...I have stopped trying to find the passion to cook when I don't want to, to motivate myself to get up and go to the gym, forcing myself to keep a positive attitude when I am busy...I don't have to do all of this in my strength, you don't have to do it all in your own strength! Place it before God, whatever your daily struggle is, give it to Him. Ask God to help you, like the scripture says: God helping you! Because when you admit you NEED God and you can't do it on your own, you then begin to embrace what God does for you, and  this is the best thing you can do for Him.

Give the boring, ordinary, mundane tasks to God not just the amazing, exciting tasks, place it before him as an offering and take the burden off yourself when it comes to the EVERYDAY Life you live.

Start to live your EVERYDAY Life with God, asking Him to help you.
