A Piece In The Works

  As I start this blog I am thinking where do I begin because I feel half the time there is so much to say.  I think in the past couple of days I have been doing some dissecting and one of the areas I have been working on  has been not over thinking but also the acceptance that God designed me a certain way for a reason.  I'm not condoning it's ok to worry but I do want to speak from aside of those who are over thinkers or it could just be my opinion.
I don't know about you but I struggle with my mind  and it goes even more deeply to  being comfortable in my own skin. And because of that I end up taking my mind through a wild goose chase trying to figure out is there something wrong with me. I know that's not true because Psalm 139 tells me I am fearfully and wonderfully made but when people tell me I'm over thinking, I question my thinking.
You see this isn't healthy because the only person who should matter is God but I confess I'm human and  it's a flaw of mine. I also want to shed light to outsiders if you want to be encouragement to us over thinkers I think the best thing you can do is don't say " Your over thinking." Again perhaps it's my thought but it's hard when you  know it's a struggle and those are the words that bounce off to you.

I also want to share that  it is a daily battle to be confident in Christ! I know that seems to be a hot topic in some of my writings! However, I say this to remind us all whatever our struggle is we have to be willing to pick up our swords! I know I am learning that daily in my time here in NY but of course I think this one is an on going lesson, no matter the location! I think at the same truth for those of us who struggle to be  confident in our own skin that  we have to learn to own our weakness.
So, I would own that title " An Over Thinker" and I know this probably sounds confusing but what I am trying to draw a point to is that there's usually a root to who we are and as mentioned over and over mine is being confident!

I want to say I don't always wake up feeling that woman God has made me but I am learning to grasp that! And I am realizing that  it is when I own my weakness that God becomes not just my  controller but my strength! So, I am writing to you brothers and sisters to know we are all a piece in the works!
