Musician's Powerful Message about Trusting God and Remembering Our Blessings

@emilyann_music I’ve honestly felt like slave to my job the past couple of weeks. This is not a new feeling… I deal with this from time to time. We went from CMA fest to Wisconsin back to CMA fest then to Kentucky and then back home for two days that I have spent working. I leave today for 5 more days and I have felt so overwhelmed with a to do list that feels 10 miles long. Not only do I feel the pressure of my responsibilities with my career, but I feel the weight of normal day to day home tasks that need my attention like laundry, unpacking and repacking suitcases, checking in on friends & family, cooking a meal for my husband, and weeding my garden. There’s no way I can squeeze all of this in the two evenings I have at home. When I start to focus on the things I have to do instead of the things I want to do I get grumpy, overwhelmed, and ungrateful. This is when I am so thankful for the reminders of Philippians 4:6-8. I am in control of what I fix my mind upon. I have learned balance is not equal parts of everything our life consists of, but it is doing the right thing at the right time. Today I had 30 mins to harvest green beans. Do I have time to weed this garden? Absolutely not, so I am not going to let something I don’t have control over control my peace. Peace is not a fully checked off to do list or a routine schedule. Peace is the presence of God. He is with you whenever you are today. Just take it one step at a time 🤍 #storytime ♬ original sound - Emily Ann Roberts
