Welcome to the Thankful Homemaker Podcast, a podcast to be an encouragement and

blessing to each other and the role God has called us to as women.

I'm so thankful you stop by.

So grab yourself a coffee or tea and sit with me a bit

as we talk about how God's word impacts every area of our lives as Christian women.

Hello friend and welcome to the thankful homemaker bite size, just a quick nugget of encouragement

for your day.

One of the aspects of the life of Christ that stands out to me

is that Jesus never seemed to be in a hurry.

Even when crowds of people surrounded him, he always made time for what was most important,

time with his father. Luke Chapter 5, 15 to 16, tells us, but now even more the report about him went abroad and great crowds

gathered to hear him and to be healed of their infirmities, but he would withdraw to

desolate places and pray.

How many times when life is busy and eyes seem to be in the midst of chaos

and continually in a hurry is sitting at the feet of Jesus the last item on my list if it even makes the

list. Sitting with Jesus is what is needed the most and I know that but I feel like if I take the time to sit the items on my list will be left undone

I look at Luke 515 and I see the crowd and they were coming to be healed.

I need to come to Jesus to be healed

and to be forgiven of my sins of self-sufficiency

and pride because these are evident in a life that's not taking the time to meet with

him. All the things going on inside my heart, my concerns, my anxiousness, my brokenness, my heartbreak, disappoint disappointments they may not be physical diseases

But I struggle with the disease of sin and Jesus is the only one who can heal me.
