Tupperware Drawer

Do you ever feel like your Tupperware drawer? Maybe yours is neat and organized--nicely stacked and you can always find the right lid because it is always nestled just perfectly in the same place. This is not me (as you can see by the picture!). Don't get me wrong-- I want it to look organized and I want to know where every last lid belongs, but I confess that I simply cannot seem to keep it organized despite my best efforts.

As Fall gets underway, I feel like my life has felt a little bit like my Tupperware drawer: there's a lot going on, and I'm not always certain I'm going to be able to make it all line up! And some days I'm just not sure I have the energy to see the day all the way through. I think if we're honest, we all feel this way sometimes. 

But the Lord has put Scripture on my heart for this new season, and He has so graciously reminded me that I'm right--I don't have enough. And I never will. I need His grace at work in me:

By the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain. On the contrary, I worked harder than any of them, though it was not I, but the grace of God that is with me.

1 Corinthians 15:10
