Romans 8:9-11 and catching up!

It has been a while since I posted anything. My husband generously sent me away for the weekend with Megan Blacker.  I am so grateful for the time I had with my friend and the opportunity to spend it in such a nice place! 

While we were gone, I did manage to memorize 3 verses.  Romans 8:9-11 - 

You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him. But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness. If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.

I am very aware of my weakness today. For the last couple of days I have had difficulty remembering the verses I have already memorized. It is clear to me that my fuzzy mind is directly linked to sleepiness. I believe God is teaching me again to depend on Him. I am NEVER able to do this in my own strength, but sometimes I begin to forget it. These days have been reminders of HIS strength and might. Even as I type this I feel my eyelids getting heavy. I am weak in my own power. I am unable to accomplish much and weary from accomplishing little. 

Father, be my strength today. I feel distracted by the many things undone right now. Focus my mind on the things that matter today. Help me to choose wisely what I will do. Help me to remember what Kevin has laid out has priorities and to do those things first - for your glory and pleasure. Thank you for your abundant grace and mercy and kindness. Thank you for saving me! You are great and worthy to be praised!
