  “I can do all things through Christ,
  which stengtheneth me.” 
  Philippians 4:13 {KJV}
  
  All of us have moments when we feel drained. 
  All of us suffer through difficult days, trying times, and perplexing periods of our lives. 
  Thankfully, God stands ready and willing to give us comfort and strength,
  …if we turn to Him.

  Burning the candle at both ends is tempting but potentially destructive. 
  Instead, we should place first things first
  by saying no to the things that we simply don’t have the time or energy to do. 
  As we establish our priorities, we should turn to God and His Holy Word for guidance.
  
  If you’re a woman with too many demands and too few hours in which to meet them, don’t fret. 
  Instead, focus upon God and upon His love for you. 
  Then, ask Him for the wisdom to prioritize your life and the strength to fulfill your responsibilities. 
  God will give you the energy to do the most important things on today’s to-do list … if you ask Him. 
  So … just ask Him!
  

  Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow;
  it empties today of its strength.
  Corrie ten Boom
  
  
  We are never stronger than the moment
  we admit we are weak.
  Beth Moore
  
  
  Where there is much prayer, there will be much of the Spirit:
  where there is much of the Spirit, there will be ever-increasing power.
  Andrew Murray
  
  
  The LORD is the strength of my life.
  Psalm 27:1  {KJV}
  
  
  Dear LORD,
  Let me find my strength in You.
  When I am weary, give me rest.
  When I feel overwhelmed, let me look to You for my priorities.
  Let Your power be my power, LORD,
  and let Your way be my way, today and forever.
  ~ Amen
   
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Here are a few photos from the Lunar Eclipse that happened
  on Tuesday morning from about 4:30am to 6:00am our time!
  It was a beautiful, cool, clear morning … we sat in the driveway facing west …
  had the camera, with our cups of hot tea in hand …
  and the sounds of the early morning crickets serenading us! 
  I took quite a few photos, but they didn’t all come out, 
  and the ones below certainly aren’t the best …
  I found that out when I was told by my son that I had it on the wrong setting!  (
  Oh well, I’m still leaning … and trying to teach myself all about this camera! 
  I do enjoy it though, and I’m looking forward to being able to use it to it’s full potential!
  So, for anyone who missed it, here’s a little bit of what it looked like … from our point of view!!
  Have a Thankful Thursday … and
  
  
  Hugs,
  ~ Deborah <><
