" Rejoice in the Lord And Again I say Rejoice"
How familiar are we with this phrase or verse ? I know many of us have heard it but it is one thing to live it! This is one of things I feel like God is challenging me on in having this attitude daily because we do not know what our tomorrows hold. And sometimes I loose sight of this because so much of me wants to have my questions about the future answered or to know what the next day holds and yet God doesn't work that way.
He works in His own timing! I've been learning a lot of that in many areas of my life and I've had to be reminded that He also calls us just to be HIs but it's so easy to loose sight of that in a busy world or if your stubborn like me and you want to know answers quickly. I'll be honest with you I don't always understand the way God works but He's good even on days I get frustrated like yesterday over just a minor sickness. I didn't like the idea of having to sit back because I wanted to be with my Cornerstone family today but that's what God needed me to do!
I'm telling you even the minor things of life can feel hard. However, I also have to look at at positive things that slowing down allows me to do such as organizing my drawer, getting to journal watching a movie etc! Those are just a few things I need to remember to celebrate because if I don't I 'll forget how much My Father knows or how good He is! Also, it also reminded me that if I don't slow down I won't be able to care for those I do care about like I would like to!
And so with all this in note I just want to write in words of encouragement that it's always better to rest and rejoice even when you don't feel it because it allows us to have self care!
