I can\u2019t believe some of the things that I accomplished and lives I was able to touch.  I have no great abilities and by nature I\u2019m very selfish yet God has used me.  The answer is in this scripture, I didn\u2019t do it but it was because of God the mighty One, because of my Sheppard and savior.<\/p>\n<p>Application: Any time I do anything I need to give the glory to God and whenever I go out to do something I need to ask God for direction, realizing I can\u2019t do anything on my own.  If I go out to accomplish anything I need to be walking along side my Lord to make sure it is successful.  I can do nothing apart from God, but I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.<\/p>\n<p>Prayer: My Lord be with me each day and direct my steps.  Show me the things you desire of me and do them through your servant.  May I touch the lives of others and may I say the things you want me to say that I may bring others closer to you.  I love you Lord and I\u2019m fully dependent of you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scripture: Genesis 49:24 But his bow remained steady, his strong arms stayed limber, because of the hand of the Mighty One of Jacob, because of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel, Observation: Sometimes I wonder how I made it through this far in my life with all that I had tried to do to end &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4578,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4576","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-devotional"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gettingoverdepression.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4576","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gettingoverdepression.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gettingoverdepression.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gettingoverdepression.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gettingoverdepression.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4576"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/gettingoverdepression.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4576\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4579,"href":"https:\/\/gettingoverdepression.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4576\/revisions\/4579"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gettingoverdepression.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4578"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gettingoverdepression.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4576"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gettingoverdepression.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4576"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gettingoverdepression.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4576"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
