today

Today, I'm not going to be such a sponge. 

Soaking up every negative and idle thought that passes by my brain. 

Today, I'm going to stop thinking about 

the concept of speaking life, 

I'll just try to find as 

many places as I can to speak it. 

Today I'm going to try very hard not to hyper-analyze my children and instead just really enjoy who they are. 

Today, I'll probably have to walk around my tiny house a few times reading some scripture out loud. 

Today, I'd really like to fight in prayer and not just break up fights over crayons. 

Today, I'd really love for the Lord to use me 

and to spend less time feeling so used up. 

Thursday, I'm coming for you, 

because today I'm going to rejoice. 

Do all things without grumbling or questioning, that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, holding fast to the word of life, so that in the day of Christ I may be proud that I did not run in vain or labor in vain. Even if I am to be poured out as a drink offering upon the sacrificial offering of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all. Likewise you also should be glad and rejoice with me.

Philippians 2:14-18
