At His feet

Sue over at Praise and Coffee has a wonderful post about laying it all at the feet of Jesus. I just really enjoyed reading it again today. To see the entire post visit her at Praise and Coffee.

Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
Matt 11:28-30 NKJV

How easy it is to become overwhelmed in this life with both simple and hard things. Life IS tough, but God is bigger and better. He wants our burdens...ALL of them. There is no reason for us to carry them. Sometimes I wonder why do we then? I'm wondering if we (I) don't really know what God can do with them anyway. But that's a really dumb thought, because I have already seen what God can do...many times over. So, I start again. At the feet of Jesus. I suppose this should be the way to start each day. Might be a good idea.

Out of sorts

I really don't even know what to write on here anymore. It seems as if I've lost my ambition to write. I am always working on my other blog and this one gets no attention. And it shows! I'm thinking that what we neglect has a way of showing up as just that. The more we put into something, the more we get out of it and visa versa. I don't have an obligation to this blog....so ya, it's just a blog. But what if it was something much more important. Like family and work and most importantly our relationship with God??? What happens then? I see what neglect is doing to this blog. I am becoming even less interested in looking at it even. Is that how it is with God. We start neglecting that relationship because we are busy or life is just too hard to think of God at the time. Then what?
As it is with this blog...it's still here.
It's just ME who hasn't put the effort into it and that is showing.
So with God....He is still here,
but my neglect in Him might be showing up in my behavior. I'm really thankful that God never leaves us. He always lets up pick up where we left off, but isn't it sad when we think of all the blessings that we most likely missed out on cuz we were too busy for God? So today....I say, for me....whatever it takes to get back to a real relationship with the One person who really cares...Just Do It!!
