Niki Turner's post at Inkwell Inspirations Is My Blog Pick of the Week

Have you been feeling weak? Take a trip over to the Inkwell and receive strength for your coming week. What do you do with weakness?

God has been sending me messages this week. I'll see something somewhere and it's like God is saying, "Can you hear me now, Jill?"  Okay, I get it, I get it. Time to surrender some things to God and time to ask others for help.

I can do all things through Christ who strenghthens me, but I've got to keep Him in the picture.

“…the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God’s will. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:26-28).

I'll also mention one of my fellow bloggers, Conlan Brown, over at our Realms Blog, In The Desert, at Just The Write Charisma. He's also posted a very thought provoking blog post that I think you'll find you can relate to quite well. I'm blogging there today on a subject near and dear to my heart, Sleeping Smart. So stop by Just The Write Charisma and we'll figure out how you can sleep smart.

Have a great weekend everyone.
Jill
