"And the Lord your God will clear out those nations before you, little by little; you may not consume them quickly, lest the beasts of the field increase among you." Deuteronomy 7:22
"God has a wonderful plan for each of us, but it never comes with just one major victory, so that we never struggle again. Instead, it's an ongoing warfare, and we must remain vigilant and be aware of the attacks of the enemy." (Meyers, pg 49).
Prayer:
"God, please forgive me for wanting all the victory right now. Help me realize that as I struggle and call on You, I see Your wonderful, loving, and caring hand taking me forward---little by little. For that, I'm so grateful. Amen"
**********My Thoughts**********
I'm super tired tonight and have running on my mind as I have an 8 mile run on the agenda in the morning.
When I think of 8 miles... yikes... that is a long way.
One step at a time
little by little
and before I know it
I'll be done.
The entire time I will be singing songs,
Thanking God for the ability to move,
and praying that I make it home in less than 2 hours.
(yeah, I'm still that slow right now).
The important part, however, will not be the time, but that I did it, that I stuck it out because God gave me the strength to do so
one step at a time.
