Devotionals
A man had a centipede that he kept as a pet in a small box with holes
punched for air. One day he said to the centipede, "Would you like to
go to Wendy's for a Frosty?" No answer, so he yelled louder, "C'mon,
let's go to Wendy's for a Frosty." This time the centipede replied, "Hold
on -- I'm putting on my shoes."
Do the tasks ahead of you today seem as overwhelming as that? Are
you bogged down with the anticipation of having more ahead of you
than you can handle? So, what do you do? You say, "Lord, there's no
mountain that you and I can't cross together, so help me make it one
step at a time." Take one challenge at a time and work on it, then go to
the next challenge. If you think about the whole list at once, you'll be
overwhelmed. A house is built one brick at a time from the foundation
up -- you don't build the roof first. "Plan your work, then work your
plan!"
Listen to Paul's prayer in Eph. 3:14 (nlt), "When I think of the wisdom
and scope of God's plan, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the
Creator of everything in Heaven and on earth. I pray that from His
glorious, unlimited resources He will give you mighty inner strength
through His Holy Spirit." Apply that prayer to your need today.
