Learning to relinquish

One of the things that I struggle with is fatigue. I come home at the end of my work day and I am exhausted. Physically, mentally, emotionally. It takes everything I have to do the bare minimum in my home. I am working on making myself more of a priority and taking better care of myself, but sometimes it seems like too little, too late. I take one step forward and three steps backward.  I make a plan and don't follow through because I am so tired. Today, I am asking God to be Lord over this area of my life again. I am slowly learning this can be a minute by minute relinquishment. I don't have to do everything myself, I have a Father who loves me and has promised to take care of me. That in itself motivates me to do the next thing.

God, grant me the serenity

To accept the things I cannot change;

Courage to change the things I can;

And wisdom to know the difference.
