My Friday morning inspiration post from last week for Help Somebody Ministries

So this message is soooo for me today. If you find yourself in it then that is great too. Right now I am not feeling very inspirational. Not at all as a matter of fact. I actually only sat at my computer to send Rev. Jones a message saying Dear Rev. Jones, just can't do it. Not feeling it. Please pray for me. Sorry, maybe next week. And I know she would understand (because I have sent that message to her before). But God is so good you know? So good. I gently saw visions of how many people bless my life on a daily basis who can't possibly always feel like it. Thought about bus drivers and friends who answer the phone when I'm feeling down. Thought about my mother and police officers and ministers and the list kept growing the longer I sat.

So now, in this moment I am inspired to create feeling like it when I don't feel like it. And I am thankful for the people in my life who show up and let God show out in their lives in the face of not feeling like it. We never know when God will bless us to be a blessing to others or to receive a blessing from someone. God is not waiting for us to feel like it. Also, the blessing could be in how we get through not feeling like it. Are we taking that opportunity to address a negative situation or are we pouting through it? Are we giving the situation to God or are we holding on to it to use against someone we could be forgiving?

I don't have a snappy closer for this post. Just, when you find yourself not feeling like it, pray. And then obey.
