So last night I had a pretty turbulant evening. Anger started in pretty hard so i decided to take a walk. For the first few minutes I started stewing and having really bad thoughts. Then I stopped and thought "what am I doing???". I took a breath and took a step back. I glanced up at the sky and called out to the Lord. If you've been reading my posts in another entry you'll see things have been pretty rough lately. At any rate, for what seemed like forever I asked the Lord to deliver me from all of this. I know I couldnt do it without Him. I asked for the strength press through the situation. After a little more one-on-one with the Lord I finally went back inside and walked to the kitchen to pack my kids' lunch for the next day.
Soon I was in tears. I had the song Proof by King and Country in my head. That is a very powerful song, especially if you've ever seen the video for it. So, while crying into the refridgerator, I asked the Lord again to make me an example of his love and mercy and work through me. By now making those PB&J sandwiches are getting a little difficult, as I could not see them as well from waterlogged eyes, but I could not stop. Eventually I walked to the other end of the house and was gathered enough to rejoin the fray.
The rest of the evening I could feel that pat on the back from Christ, telling me to hang in there. Who am I to argue?? Right? I'm telling you friends, you gotta cry out to Christ when things are rough and praise when things are good. Just do His will. He'll point it out to you. You just gotta look!
