Many thing can fight against us, sometimes little things can fight against us that might not be finances, spouses and all the big problems we can imagine. A simple thing as housework can fight against us. When we become so focused on everything being in a particular way or at a particular place to ensure what we assume is neatness, we lose our peace because we then have a fight on our hands trying to place the dishes a certain way, the throw pillows a certain way every DAY!
We allow some things that we should prevail over, to prevail over us thereby making us to have unnecessary fights that could be avoided.
You must keep your home clean!! but do it with joy and not with the idea that it won't be messed up the next minute or with the fear that oh! they will soon mess everything and i'll start afresh (lamenting already) to arrange!
God is in charge of everything in our life down to the tiniest detail, so if he says it shall not prevail against us! then it is so, be it a pain in our joints, making the children fall in line or have a clean house. Because he has told us in Jer1:9b"----------for i am with thee, saith the Lord, to deliver thee" he will give us the strength to do all we ought to do if we do all things as unto God, he will enable us and deliver us from housework stress, running after the children, schoolrun, taking care of the family as a whole. When you believe in God's help you won't burn out!
*******Have fun till we meet again*******
