Tired?

Tired šŸ˜“


Tired of sitting up and lying down. Tired of having headaches, heartaches and ailments in my body. If am advised to see one more doctor, get one more treatment, pay for one more blood test and see one more specialist I will definitely scream.


Tired of reading yet? Sick and tired of hurting knees, backs and a headache that never cease even after the natural homeopathic remedies, prescriptions and the over the counter meds.


Still not used to the high electric bills, paid one and here comes another, the anti-biotics that do not work, super food diets and ā€œorganic foods that are not truly organic unless you grow it yourself? Hmmm, me too.


It is such a shame! I am tired of being unable to speak to the child the way I am supposed to, much less tell them what to do because oh- here comes trouble, raise them but do not right them. However, when they grow up undisciplined perhaps the prisons, streets and shelters will maybe have a program for them.


The weather is not acting right and we are getting sick. Gas prices and food areĀ  up and down and around. I am tired. How about you?


Heaven forbid! Well guess what if you are tired of being tired


ā€œā€¦Jesus said, ā€œCome to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.ā€ā€

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭11‬:‭28‬-‭30‬ ‭NLT‬‬


Wonder why we are weary!! Prayer still works, perhaps we should a little more. Why go to God since our tiresome selves cannot handle the burdens of this world? I go to him because

ā€œHe lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name.ā€

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭23‬:‭2‬-‭3‬ ‭NLT‬‬


My meditation is on him. The world says we have the power

ā€œBut those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.ā€

‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭40‬:‭31‬ ‭NLT‬‬


God shouts in our weaknesses , discomfort and weak confidences He tells us

ā€œFor I have given rest to the weary and joy to the sorrowing.ā€ā€

‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭31‬:‭25‬ ‭NLT‬‬


When, you are tired run to him, there you will find rest, peace and insurmountable joy.


Merciful God, Lord of Angels Armies, the God who rescues and fights for His people. We call you ABBA. Father, dear Lord we are grateful for your faithfulness towards us. We humbly come with arms lifted up in thanks and praise. Lord thank you for your promised peace and joy. Thank you for carrying our burdens when we rests on you. I pray we continue to be witnesses to be used by you. In the powerful name of Jesus we pray. Lord God thank you. Amen
