Lately there have been times when I wake up in the morning
and I say (either to myself or out loud), "I do not feel like doing this
day..." It's a terrible thing to
say. We all are given only so many days,
and I'm not sure it is acceptable to not feel like "doing" any of
them. But as a matter of full
disclosure, today was like that. The
truth is, I am only posting because I know I should. There have been many moments, lately, when I
have not particularly wanted to do the right thing, but I am pushing through
it. This is one of those "right
thing" moments. Consistency matters.
It was almost 8:00pm when I sat down to read Scripture after
what was a somewhat trying day which mostly consisted of anxiety, pain, and
drug induced sleep.
Nice.
I came to Psalm 6:2,
"Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am faint; heal me, Lord, for my bones are
in agony" (NIV).
Seriously? Funny,
God. And yet strangely comforting. Even on this day, God knows me...
Psalm 6:9 "The
Lord has heard my cry for mercy, the Lord accepts my prayer" (NIV).
Yes, even mine. Yes,
even today.
