"after dealing with the unpleasant people that I couldn’t control or make go away… I began to need Him. I began to realize that my strength was not working." I read this in my devotion this morning. Life isn't all about what you can accomplish and who you can become. It is about who God makes you and what challenges He puts in your path to mold you into a creature dependent on Him for survival. For life and energy. At this point in the year 14 hour days are normal, and even expected. I never minded working long days. In fact, I like it. I love being busy and seeing things get done.
But busyness doesn't replace Jesus. It can't. Because then I'm just a person who can't sustain myself.
