I'm So Very, Very Tired

I'm tired.

Not just the "I need more sleep" kinda' tired,

although I don't get enough sleep.

Not just the "I'm really busy" kinda' tired,

although I'm really, really busy.

It's not even the "there are many demands on my life" kinda' tired,

although there are a lot of demands on my life.

I feel spiritually, physically and emotionally exhausted.

But, I can't say, "life is too hard"

because it isn't.

I can't say "the trials are unbearable"

because they aren't.

I can't say "I can't go on"

because of the grace of the Lord,

and His mercies that are new each morning,

I know I will wake up and somehow

have the strength

to face

just

one

more

day.

But, I do admit to being tired.

Very, very tired.

Praise the Lord, I won't be tired long.

Jeremiah 31:25
"I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint.”

I have a great reason to press on.

Galatians 6:9

And let us not be weary in well doing:

for in due season we shall reap,

if we faint not.

So, just gunna' get me a little sleep,

a little refreshing from the Lord

and wait for that due season...

...praying I reap a bountiful harvest.
