Day one of my journal
Today is the first day of my dairy. God has been putting it in my heart to do this a while ago but I have been making excuses not to and have been procratinating like usual but finally i started it.
Today was a good day. Work went well and once again, I experienced God favor on me and he is taking care of me just like he promised. The management team was just as helpful and patient with me today as they have been from day one. Today I didn't worry too much at work. Sometimes I worry a lot and other days I don't much about my job preformance. I know that if I just rest my cares on God and give him all my fears and anxieties, he always takes care of me and gives me supernatural peace. It's just hard sometimes to do that. I didn't experience the fear that I have from the associates that I manage today like i did yesterday. God showed me this verse that gave me peace. "'Don't say that,' the Lord replied, 'for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell you, And don't be afraid of the people, for I will be with you and take care of you.'"
I can definitely sense God showing me what to do at work. For the most part I am obeying but I still am stuggling because of my bad procratination and lazyiness habits along with my uncomfortabliness of having authority and having to tell people what to do. Plus, I'm still stuck in my hourly mentality instead of a salary mentality. I like my job because time goes by so fast because you have so much to do but if you take the time to do the little stuff that you should delegate to your hourly associates, you won't won't have time to do all the things that you need to do during the time you are scheduled to work and you will get stress out. But I am also getting stress out because when I do finally delegate something to someone, most of the time it never gets done. It's hard managing people with the work ethic they have out here.
My life is still out of balance but I am definitely getting better. I'm still letting my flesh control my life instead of sacrificing my life to God to be led by the spirit in my eatting habits. Yesterday I had a good day. I ate healthy and all raw and I didn't overeat and I worked out hard at the gym but today was not as good. I was suppose to workout today and I had plenty of time to but what did I do when I got home from work...I pigged out. And if I eat something when I get home from work, I lose all my motivation to go workout. It makes me mad that I am so rebellious after everything that I know and after God has been so good to me!
I know that until I get obedient to Him is this area of my life, I won't be able to fulfill God's purpose for my life. Plus God has showed me that my future husband is waiting for me once I totally surrender my whole life to him. What's wrong with me...? I have so many things to motivate me to give my whole life to God but i'm am still giving permission to the devil to control me! God pointed out to me today that yes it is hard and I am going to suffer but the suffering I am going to have is nothing compared to what Jesus had to suffer for us. The suffering we have now is nothing compared to the glory he will give us later. If you commit to fulfilling your mission in life no matter what it costs, you will experience the blessings of God in ways that few people ever experience.
Another thing that God showed me today was that just because you get into the word everyday doesn't make you right with God. Knowledge increases reponsibility. You have to obey what you know. If you know a lot, God will hold you accountable for all that you know and if you do something that God told you to do or not to do, you are sinning period. Even if it isn't a sin to other people, if God is dealing with you on something and you aren't obeying him, you are choosing death. I can see where compromising is starting to get me into trouble too. Obedience means more to Him than sacrific. Thank you Lord everyday for your grace, love and mercy!
Some other key words and verses I read today:
No servant can serve 2 masters.
Don't trade your life for temporary things."
Anyone who lets himself be distracted from the work I plan for him is not fit for the Kingdom of God." -Luke 9:62"
Over and over God resues them, but they never learned, until their sins destoyed them." -Psalm 106:43
If you fail to fulfill your God-given mission on earth, you will have wasted the life God gave you. It is vital that you stay focused on God's plan, not your pain or problem.
