The 3:20AM wake up call came with the need for a drink of water, followed by a bathroom run. Then crawling back into bed the mind started rushing. The dilemma...whether to replace the carpet in three bedrooms or let the grands wear on it another summer. Then would it be better to replace it with new carpet or switch to hardwood. These led to a list of everything in the house and yard needing which could use a spruce up, which by now 5:00 AM, I am thinking should we just sell the property.
Devil darts galore, so I opened Jesus Calling to read for that day.
"Thank me for your problems. As soon as your mind gets snagged on a difficulty, bring it to Me with thanksgiving. Then ask Me to show you My way to handle the situation. The very act of thanking Me releases you from your negative focus. As you turn your attention to Me, the problem fades in significance and loses its power to trip you up. Together we can deal with the situation, either facing it head-on or putting it aside for later consideration." Sarah Young Jesus Calling
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving present your requests to God. Philippians 4:6
Whew! The answer to the house projects was put them aside for later consideration.
