Our Daily Bread

This morning I woke up...to start day four in a row of working 13hr shifts. And knowing it still wasn't done. I had one more after today yet. I was just exhausted still from the last three days. I didn't know how I was going to make it, or where I was going to find my energy from. But time keeps going, so we have to too. So as I was getting ready, I quickly glanced at my emails, and this was what I read.....

Do I believe God will provide? Yes, I honestly say I do. I mean, why else would I pray to Him on my drive in to work each day? Why would I say little prayers to Him for help throughout my day, as I run to a code or RRT or intubation or before having a critical conversation with someone? Why would I emphasize "Give us this day, our daily bread" while whispering the Lord's Prayer to myself? Why would I do all that if I didn't believe that God will provide for me? The truth is, I wouldn't do that if I didn't believe. And you know what... I made it through the day. There were some moments where I just wanted to stop... but because Jesus is with me always, He helped me get through this day.

Then tonight, when I got home, I was catching up on replying to my text messages, and checking out Instagram posts... I came upon this...

It was the perfect words... whether we feel it or not, all we can say is "I did the best I could." And take the good and the bad, and give them to Jesus. And know tomorrow is a new day that God is giving us, and the best we can do is be grateful for this gift, and live it for Him.

So one more day.... I think I can, I think I can, I think I can... I know I can... with the help of Jesus! :)
