Tell Yourself To March

Today I sat monitoring the students in my classroom and thought about how tired I felt. Like many people, one job is not enough to make ends meet, so I work several. The thought came to me of how we always have to keep moving forward. I could see in my minds eye troops marching in the semi-dark in the rain, rain gear on, tired, slogging forward. That has to be us. We are slogging through life. We have to keep moving forward.

Galatians 6:9 And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

Some days we will be tired. We may feel alone. We may feel like the soldiers marching in the rain. But we must continue to march on. It is our only hope of making it to the end. And we know we have a Father that is there for us, encouraging us and comforting us on the way.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are King. We are weary, and we need Your kingdom. We need to be with You. We need to walk in Your ways. We bless Your name, Yahuah! Send us now Your overwhelming blessing. Forgive us our sins. Heal up that which is broken in our hearts. Deliver us from the evil that would steal from us. We need You and Your love and mercy to survive. You are our only hope in the rain. We ask these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
