God can do Great Things

I am feeling much more hopeful today that God can do great things. He created the world with nothing. He started his church with 12 simple men. He has changed the world with a key person as a key point in time. He fed thousands with a bit of food. He can do great things.

We are small in number. At times we are small in energy and faith. But with a bit of faith in Him, he can do great things.

I have many weeknesses, many faults, many short comings. But God can use them to do great things...

Now - if I can only figure out how to let him...

Motivation

I'm sorta having trouble being motivated to get healthy lately. There just seems to be so many things in my life that need help and I feel overwhelmed by it all - so the first thing to go out the window is the effort to try to be healthy.

I feel like nothing is going well for me right now. I don't like my job and I don't feel like I'm doing a good job. My house feels out of control. I don't have the energy to be a great mom. I don't feel like we have a good handle on our budget and finances. I just feel like even when I try there is just too much to do or fix - and I am having trouble feeling motivated to try.

So - I'm hoping that we can get some things done this weekend. Maybe getting some tasks done will help - but right now I am vegging on the couch watch What Not to Wear...
