My Letter to God...Racing Thoughts

Hello Again Father,
For the past few weeks I've experienced roller coaster emotions.  I've experienced enormous highs and not terrible lows but a lot of lows.  I've been super-excited about my newfound freedom and then I struggle with feelings of "now what?".  So I will lay my cards on the table.
Thank You God for releasing me from the job that I held so closely to.  Thank You for releasing me from miserable mornings, days of being the blame for everything that went wrong in the office, the cleaner upper, the fixer, etc.  I thank You and praise You for the release.

The freedom that I now feel is spectacular and its further evidence in my life that you are a God Who truly answers prayer and that You care about me.

I'm grateful that I am now home and I'm finally able, for the 1st time in almost 25 years, to make my house a home.  Lord, please give me direction in this area, because You know I need Your help to turn this house into a home where You can dwell and my family can thrive.
I ask that You will be my focus.  Help me to keep my eyes and my thoughts on You.  My emotions are still unbalanced.  My thoughts run wild and race most of the day.  Forgive me for submerging myself in solitaire games as a distraction.  I often wonder, "what should I do now?"  I have many thoughts and I'm thankful that some are really positive, but Lord, I need direction from you.  Racing thoughts are not Your desire for me, I confess that I need the mind of Christ.  I confess that I look for distractions.  Please comfort me with Your Spirit, Your Peace and Your Love.  Comfort my mind and help me to focus on Your Will for my life.  I know that Your Will for me is to live in peace and in harmony with You and those around me.
Thank You for listening to me like You always do.  Thank You for loving and caring for me like You always do.  I appreciate you with all of my heart.
Your Child

Strengthen Me!

Psalm 119:28 28  My soul is weary with sorrow; strengthen me according to your word. There will be days when we feel beat up.  There are days when the weight of the world is on our shoulders. It is in those hard times that we must tell God our truth.  We must confess how we really feel. Lord, I'm hurt.  Lord, I'm tired.  Lord, I don't think I can handle this anymore. When we pour out our heart to God, we are giving Him access to comfort and strengthen us.  His Word says, that He will NEVER leave us nor forsake us.  His Word says, He uplifts us with His right hand.  His Word says, I have loved you with an everlasting love.  His Word says, cast all of your cares on Me. I pray that as you go through this weekend that the Word of God strengthens you for whatever and everything that you are facing.

Be Free From Denial!

Have you ever experienced that feeling when you finally get something off of your chest?  You feel free, it's as a though a weight has been lifted up and off of you.  The same feeling can be experienced when we admit how we really feel.  Maybe you've been sad, angry, frustrated, depressed or otherwise. God wants us to come to Him, tell Him how we feel and give these feelings to Him.  The Bible instructs us to cast our cares onto Him.  We are supposed to throw these issues off of ourselves and allow God to care for us. Don't live in denial.  Stop walking around pretending that everything is all right!  Shake yourself free from pain and anguish!  Live and Be Free from DENIAL! via  Daily Prompt: Denial

Tip of the Day!

PRAY! "In Thessalonians 5:17, we are reminded to "Pray without ceasing".  As you are walking to a coworker's office, holding on the phone, waiting for a meeting to start, or doing a simple task, lift you company and coworkers up to the LORD." Daily Wisdom for the Workplace by Pamela McQuade. Whether you are at work, at home, at school, church, a relatives house, or wherever, we must remember to pray.  Depression creeps in when we lose our line of communication with God.  It is vital to keep that relationship in its proper place, 1st and foremost.  It is very important that we talk with God and listen to Him too.  God bless you.
