Do you need Power for the Day?

My office is upstairs in something similar to a indoor tree house. (It's really cool!) But from time to time, my Internet decides it doesn't want to connect to it's power source - the router. This happened yesterday! Also yesterday, I got to speak to a really neat group of girls @ Salem Baptist MOPS. Then my children had early release due to the weather. Often, it I don't post in the morning, it doesn't happen that day. Praise God it decided to come back on today! Sorry there was no post yesterday:)

Tip #6: (I'll recap last week's tips at the bottom of the page.)

Spending time with Jesus each day connects us to our Power Source. He'll give us power for the day.

Matthew 5:16

Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. (italics mine.)

Just as my Internet needs a router to power a connection; Just as a lamp needs to be plugged in to the wall in order to work, we need to plug into our Power Source each day so that we can have power for the day.

When we make spending time with Jesus a priority, He'll empower us to:

• To love the unlovable- (Who has God placed in your corner of the world that is unlovable to you?)


• To be more patient. (Who pushes your buttons to the max? Are you waiting for a house or a property to sell?)


• Forgiveness when someone hurts or offends us - (They may not even ask for it, but He'll give us the supernatural power to overlook it the offense.)


• To do that difficult, overwhelming task facing you at work - (Like reading legal-ees and you have A.D.D!)
• To do that task or project you keep putting off or procrastinating away-

• To make that phone call you've been dreading or putting off.

Do you need a fresh burst of power in your day? Make spending time with Jesus - your Power Source - a priority. Go ahead and tackle the difficult things in the morning or as soon as you can. (It's Biblical.) When you do - He'll empower your light to shine brightly for all to see!

Warm, cozy wishes to your day!
