philippians 4:19

i have been feeling a little of sorts these past couple days. and by that i mean that i have been experiencing feelings that don't make sense to me. i have been getting 8 hours of sleep every night, which is on average 3 hours more than i got every night this summer, and yet i feel exhausted by the end of each day. also, i have found it incredibly difficult/tiresome to motivate myself to do my homework. that is foreign to me. i am usually very good at knowing what i have to do and doing it. usually it is at the very last minute, but i do it. however lately i have been feeling lazy, which is a feeling i absolutely loath. this morning, as i was reading my bible, i came across philippians 4:19, which says, "and my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus." i loved this verse immediately because it gave me some hope in my weird feelings. as long as i am relying on God, he is going to help me sort this out and he will provide me with all that i need to conquer them. i decided that i wanted to pray this over me all day long, but every time that i tried to remember it i could barely even remember the gist of what it was getting at. as a result, i began reading the verse over and over to try and commit it to memory. it was not until the seventh or eighth time that i realized i was only contemplating the first half of the verse. "and my God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus." according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus. Paul is referring to Christ's redemptive work on the cross on our behalf. God has already met my needs through sending his son to die for me. I don't need to worry or wonder if God is ever going to show up. He has already fulfilled my one and only need. the Lord was already solving my greatest problem, before i was even born. praise the Lord that he has already taken care of my one and only need.
