Good morning,
I am sitting here thinking about
when I was going through my storm I was so sad but I knew that it wouldn’t
always be this way. It was hard not to go with what I was feeling. It was so
intense that I couldn’t even focus at times. I literally had to set up
reminders that it was just a feeling not my life. There is a difference in what
you feel and what you know to be true. It’s like when someone steps on your
foot. It hurts but you know that you can still use it and that eventually the
pain will fade. Life is not a toe but the same theory applies. I knew that my
life had not always been this way. I knew that I was in a tough situation but
it would eventually clear up. I knew that grief and the grieving process doesn’t
last forever. I knew that I was ok and just needed to keep moving forward. I
focused as much as I could on what I believed. One day I woke up and I was felt
different. The heaviness that I was feeling was not there. I immediately felt
happy because I didn’t feel sad. I know that sounds crazy but just the relief
of heartache was enough to send me over the moon with happiness. I knew that it
would come because I believe in the promise for an abundant life. If you do not
believe then you will always be grasping at any solution trying to fix it
yourself. Sometimes what you are going through is needed. The old has to be
washed away so that the new can flourish. Let go and let it happen. Drown
yourself in the love and comfort that GOD has created for you. All you need is
a mustard seed size of faith to keep you moving forward and you will eventually
come out of your storm. When you do make it to the other side and you are in a
better place be a blessing for someone else. Sooooo many people were
encouraging me and praying for me during my time of need. Now that I’m in a
better place I just want to be that support that I had for someone else. It’s
ok to have feelings but you have to remind yourself that it’s just a reaction
to the situation(s) that are happening in your life. IT IS NOT YOUR LIFE. The promise is an
abundant life with GOD having your back every step of the way. You have to
believe that anything that happens you are built to handle. KNOW that happiness
is still there and when the negative fades you will be able to enjoy this gift
of life!
I know these things to be true
because I’m on the other side. It was a rough road getting here but I’m back
and grateful!
We will always have feelings but
we cannot allow them to determine our future. BELIEVE that it’s just a moment
and keep pushing forward!
AND remember if you can’t move
by running it’s ok to move using baby steps.
MAKE IT GREAT!
