@Cherishingsparrows2020 good question, I have a family, job, and many responsibilities that come with these. But I am told seek his kingdom first and righteousness and God promises that all my needs will be met. I start my day (night now on 3rd shift) with prayer scriptures, and a hymn, for this helps me be filled with the Holy Spirit. This also aids my mind and spiritual sense. I go to work and work unto the Lord without cheating, lying, gossiping, or being lazy. I also have chosen jobs that have helped my family. Sometimes I had to take a lower paying job for my family needs, but the Lord always provided what we needed. I am starting a bible study with people at work, as i was lead by the Lord. I am working at being a servant and thinking about my family needs even when I'm tired. I fall short but always come to Gods throne for forgiveness through the precious blood. I am striving to make every part of my life in line with his will according to the scriptures.

@Justinmartyr Thank you. This is a beautiful testimony! I appreciate the example of living for Jesus in the ordinary aspects of life and of God's forgiveness and grace to keep pressing on when we fall short.
May we all keep knowing and loving Jesus more and more. God bless you and your family!
