John 16:33 "I have said these things to you, that in me you will have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world."
Today was an extremely Monday kind of Monday. It started out rough and just continued to be. I woke up feeling off, and then received some concerning texts. Then someone I care about had a really difficult time with a long awaited project. I could not do anything to really change anyone's issues or situations. Even trying to be positive didn't help. Yup, it was one of those days.
I have to say that frustration is not my go to reaction when things go awry. I do have someone close to me that does go straight to that specific reaction. Unfortunately, there was a lot of frustration in the air today. When that happens it can permeate everything. The more I allowed myself to give into the negative surrounding the day, the more small things started happening. For instance, during dinner I dropped, spilled, and splashed over and over again. The more I just shook my head the more it happened. Sigh. Yes, it was a very Monday kind of Monday.
I found myself also being distracted in my prayers as well. Usually, when things get rough, I can easily go straight into prayer. Today the evil one was really trying to undo me because I was very fuzzy every time I tried to do so. My armor had not just slipped, it was off and in another room. Ugh. Thankfully, God inspired me to pull away from all the issues and come to Him and lean in. I am so grateful, and although not everything from today is settled, my soul is calm and my prays are clear. To God be the glory.
Praying that all is well with you sister.
