Jesus is always taking care of me

     I made a resolution to do better this year. Not to lose weight, not to sell $10,000 in Pampered Chef products, not to walk 36,500,000 steps in a year, or even to read my Bible everyday. I resolved to do better. So I made a list on my computer. A list of things to do. A task list if you will. Now my computer will not hold me accountable for my actions but it becomes like a game. In my head it becomes a competition and each day I do a little better than yesterday.
     I have found that the best time for me to do my morning prayer is when I am on my school bus. I am alone traveling to my first stop so it is just me and the traffic, yes I pray for the traffic. I do find myself getting distracted sometimes but I can pull my mind back into my important task. I have 20 minutes all to myself. I pray for everything I can wrap my mind around and most of the time I do forget to pray for someone or something. The things that I can't control, I lay at the feet of Jesus and I pray the I can recognize my own laziness and take up my cross and do my part.
     Remember that Jesus will take care of you but He can't do 100% of it. You have to do your part.
