Keep on keepin' on
There will always be dishes to wash, laundry to clean & fold, floors to vacuum etc. It's just part of life. We need to accept that, and learn to rejoice that there is enough food to make the dishes dirty, clothes to clean and a home to keep up.
(Same principle with work and just about anything else we can think of.)
As in our walk with God. We ALWAYS need Him, so keep praying, keep studying His Word, keep seeking Him, thanking Him, rejoicing in Him and trusting Him....
Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!

Sometimes we think we're so smart.
Picture a child with a project. They don't know how to go about it, so they ask you for help. You are eager to assist them with the task.
You give them all the materials they need for their project.
You give them detailed instructions to accomplish their goals.
You give them ideas, suggestions and explanations to make it all work.
You're there to help every step of the way....whenever they ask.
In time, they accomplish their goal. They are so excited and proud.
Suddenly their ego takes over.
"Look what I did!!" "See how smart I am." "See what I can do!!"
"I don't need You anymore!!
I wonder if we're sometimes like that child when it comes to Our Heavenly Father?
Trust
I often wish I could communicate with our little birds so they would better understand me....as sometimes they seem to be afraid of me.
One day I was praying and asking the Lord how can I "reach" them and help them to understand that I don't want to harm them and they can trust me?
I got the impression He was thinking "Good question!!" (As though He sometimes wonders that about us.)
Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
