I want to talk to you a little about inconsistencies. Well maybe a lot...This morning on my drive to work I was having my very own personal pity party. It involved me beating myself up over my inconsistencies in everything I do or try to do. In fact, the only thing I
feel I AM consistent in is my inconsistency. Prayer, cooking, cleaning, reading my bible, reading to my kids, healthy eating, exercising, & many more I have chosen not to share for your own sanity. Why can't I just get it together, kept playing over & over in my head! My life feels instable b/c of my incapabilites to get things done. I was letting myself have it, when I heard the radio in the background, reporting about the earthquake in the midwest this morning. One of the reporters asked what we think is most stable on this earth? The earth or ground! She said that even the most stable “thing” shakes & moves. Thus leaving God's word the only thing unshakable. Boy did I needed that! I've often heard that we can't truly love or feel love until we seek & experience God's unconditional love. Then we can truly learn to love others like He does. Well doesn't my inconsistencies apply also? I can't be 100% consistent with anything, until I lay everything aside & seek God's unshakable word! The verse below is just what I needed, as it is very straight to the point! I hope this brings you some encourangement today! I love you & pray you have a safe & wonderful New Years!

Psalms 16:7-9 (NIV) 7 I will praise the LORD, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me. 8 I keep my eyes always on the LORD. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken. 9 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will
rest secure,
rest secure,
