Good Morning Girlz!
S - v.9 NAS "Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom."
O - When I first read the above verse I thought, "That doesn't sound very fun." but then I switched over to the Message translation and this is what I found..."Quit dabbling in sin. Purify your inner life. Quit playing the field. Hit bottom, and cry your eyes out. The fun and games are over. Get serious, really serious. Get down on your knees before the Master; it is the only way you'll get on your feet." I am always amazed how the Lord is always there to take whatever I give Him. There is not a burden, worry, anxiety, mess-up, or stupid desire I voice to Him that He doesn't take on with open hands. The problem comes when I keep all those things to myself and try to figure them out on my own instead of giving them to Him.
A - Freedom in Christ is always a topic that has intrigued me. It is something I long to study more about. I experience freedom when I give it all to Him. When I throw up my hands and ask Him to take it from me, that's when I experience His freedom. I like how the Message said, "Get on your knees, that's the only way you'll get on your feet."
P - THANK YOU Lord Jesus for always being there to take my requests and concerns. May I never stray from telling you all that is on my plate and why I want you to handle it and not me. THANK YOU for loving me in spite of the silly, selfish requests I make to you. Forgive me for getting wrapped up in the temporal things of this world. I love You Father.
