Accomplishments

I always try to write these at night and never finish them because night time is not my time. I admit it, I am an early morning person. I always feel better and more productive when I get up and get myself going first thing in the AM. True, this doesn't necessarily always work with being pregnant. Sometimes I just want to sleep the day away.

It seems to me in the Bible that great things always got accomplished when they got up early in the morning. Those I read about were people of accomplishment especially the Proverbs 31 woman. I wonder why accomplishment is becoming such a big theme in my life right now. Maybe it's that I am 30 now. Maybe it's because I have no outside goal to accomplish. Perhaps the fact that I have to make my own way completely. I want my kids to be people of accomplishment and with me doing nothing I would be a really bad example. I need to focus in on what God has for me and run for it. I know being a Proverbs 31 woman is a major thing.

A while back I watched an episode of Joyce Meyers and got so inspired by a prayer she encouraged us all to pray. Then it fell by the wayside, but when I was cleaning my room this week I found it again and so I pray it today with all my heart.

Lord, show me what you would have of me. Speak Lord for your servant is listening that I might obey!

The Prayer

Today I take responsibility for my life. No more blaming, no more excuses; I take responsibility. It's a new day. I will never be the same. My past will not dictate my future. It stops right here with me. If anybody is going to do anything about my life, it's going to be me, so that I'm a responsible person!

Lord, I give you praise for enabling me to be all that you made me to be. I am Yours. I am ready to be used by You. Have Your way in my life. I will not hold You back from doing whatever You want to do with me.

James 1:22-25
