God is my Stronghold!

The Lord is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble; And He knows those who trust in Him. Nahum 1:7 NKJV

This month was a challenge for me. At one point, I believed I was superwoman and could do anything on four to five hours of sleep. Yes, I said it! I sleep for four to five hours (doesn't everybody, LOL). Now I am running on empty. There is no more Diana energy left; look out when that happens! I am currently a complete mess. My thought process is off. I am short-tempered and mad all the time. There is no peace. One day during my lunch break, I had to pray for peace and release. I prayed that God would renew my strength and give me the peace of mind to share and show love to others. I had to remember that God always wanted me to depend on Him and not always feel like I could do everything alone.

I am very private, and it's hard for me to open up to people, so if you and I had a conversation, God bless. Because I must have shared my frustrations and my joys with you. Talking to God daily in prayer or just conversing with Him helps. I was telling myself that I felt defeated and deflated. Reading Nahum 1:7 helped me realize (again) that God is my stronghold. I know that I trust God, but I need to learn how to keep my trust in Him. So please keep me in your prayers. God is still working on me and through me. I know that God has a purpose for me and is preparing me for great things. So, I will stay encouraged and tell myself that God is good and faithful, and He is my stronghold!
