"We need to rely on the resurrection life of Jesus much deeper down than we do, to get into the habit of steadily referring everything back to Him; instead of this we make our common-sense decisions and ask God to bless them. He cannot, it is not His domain." ~Oswald Chambers
How often will I fall for this? How often will I let my heart go adrift for days before I realize the emptiness of all the duties I am performing? When will I realize that I need Him? I cannot ask the questions outside of Him. I cannot live life, be a mom, be a wife, be a teacher, outside of Him. Lord, the emptiness is deafening. Keep me O Lord. Let the time it takes me to run back to you grow shorter. Let the times I allow my heart it's wanderings grow fewer.
Jesus, Jesus, Precious Jesus...Oh for grace to trust Him more.
