Have you ever felt like you can't catch a break, like once something get's better something else goes wrong immediately after? Even if it's something small, you've had so much going on it feels like it's the end of the world? This happens to me sometimes. And normally I don't handle it very well. But I have discovered something, and it's freakin awesome. Would you like to know what it is?
JESUS
I have just felt Satan yanking on me lately. And like I said before, normally I don't deal with it well. I get angry that things are falling apart, big or very small. I get sad that life is hard. I become a giant pity party for myself. It's not pretty. Today I lost over 1400 pictures that were on my phone. My heart hurt for the memories of my family that I am not going to be able to get back, the pictures with the friends that I miss that I no longer have. I also haven't had the best couple weeks, and right as things got fixed, this happened. And this morning I thought "man, can't I just catch a little break?" And then all the sudden I realized, this could be so much worse! I still have a phone, all my contacts are still there, I have WONDERFUL people surrounding me and I have a lot of the pictures on facebook and instagram that were lost on my phone. It defiantly still sucks but I am so lucky and I have so much more then I deserve. I was sad today about my pictures, but it did not consume me. I could feel Satan trying to get me down, and I still can, but he is failing horribly. Because of the love and trust I have for my savior Satan is getting stomped on, as soon as I realized today that letting this one thing consume my day and ruin everything was silly and that trusting in God was a much better choice of my energy I could feel weight being lifted off my shoulders.
