This morning, I realized that I don’t start my day out with God. I wake up, realize I’m still exhausted, and then begrudgingly get out of bed and attempt to make myself look and feel human so that each task can be checked off in my planner. Most of the time, though, I end up overwhelmed and discouraged.
I know me, and I know that I am not the person who will spend hours a day reading my Bible or committing to a devotional. That’s pretty ironic since I wrote a devotional… but anyway… =)
I stumbled upon this website this morning, and this article hit my “AH-HA” nerve. It’s just what I needed today to help me deal with everything that’s going on. I hope you find it helps you to start out this week. Blessings to you~ Angela Walsh

It’s no wonder we find ourselves feeling overwhelmed when we deal with bits of discouragement daily. Who can avoid all negativity?
