I was up at 4:20 am today to catch my flight from Lewiston back to Boise.  By the time I got home I was going to skip today’s entry but felt immediately checked because the day is part of my journey–even though it isn’t so great.  Somehow it is much nicer to do this blog when I am reporting positive growth or awakenings.  Today it seems I am finding problems and issues and it would be much easier to skip the day since I’m starting late, but I do know that we all have days like this so how does God tell us to handle them?  Well, I did my devotions when I got home and He has already reminded me that I am to recognize I am a new creation everyday–not some days.  He also reminded me that I have accountability support and that I don’t need to carry burdens alone.

I am awfully glad to be home so I can work through what needs to be done from here.  I also feel much more connected to support when I am home even though a text or call happens just as quickly a few hundred miles away–proximity is sometimes important.

So, everyday isn’t a perfect day, but keeping focused on the fact that God is my Lead as a new creation and I am to surrender all of this frustration.  I can watch it come together as the day goes on just like any other time when I sense this.  So, thank you Father God.  You are not only my Strength, you are my calm assurance.
