When You Don't, You Should
The angel of the Lord came the second time and touched him and said, Arise and eat, for the journey is too great for you. ~ 1 Kings 19:7
I think that we have all had a time or two where life has beaten us down to the point where we have had zero motivation. Cont...
We didn't have the energy to start, to get going, to eb inspired or encouraged and we just wanted to sulk to the point of semi existence. This is not an uncommon situation. The Prophet Elijah as great as he was experienced the very same thing. In fact, he laid under a tree and asked God to take his life.
An Angel of the Lord appeared to him not once, but twice, and he basically instructed him to get up, eat and get to moving. I have learned in my life that the time when I feel like doing the least is when I need to force myself to do the most, because idle time, is the devil's time.
The longer we sit, the longer we will ponder. We will get lost in our thoughts as the mind is the devil's playground. He is a master at fueling us with fear, doubt, disbelief and worry. He loves it when we are afraid, anxious, stressed, depressed and angry. Be encouraged today. Focus on the one good thing in your life.
