Lord, sometimes I truly feel like I am failing in my work. I can publish 3 books in 3 weeks and keep working on the series so that I almost have the FIFTH Jo Journal done now. I can drive my Mate to places to get his items for him to fix and flip. I can work two 14 hour shifts in a week and cook 3 meals and a snack for 13 people in one day and do all the cleaning and barely have a moment to sit down… or I can cover 3 coworkers in one day and force myself to stay until midnight when I was tired by 6pm. I can even be light enough and loving enough to remain well liked and appreciated by my clients. Yet I still manage to feel like a failure somehow, Lord. I do not understand my own self. Please help me to finish my Jo Timeline journal and perhaps start on one of the self-management type ones, so that I can use it to help mine own self to REALIZE how STRONG I am, through your awesome provision and mercy. Help me to create a Jo Journal that helps myself and other people in their daily struggles, Lord. I ask you to bless me with the wisdom, patience, courage, and understanding to create these next Jo Journals and to do a GOOD JOB. I ask you to help me be more self-compassionate and patient with myself. I ask you to help me let go of worry and self-doubt and feelings of failure. I ask you to remind me that I get my strength and sustenance from YOU — not from the things that I do. Amen. Thank you, kind Shepherd. <3
