My Life Lately

Well, it has been a very different week!
Good and difficult.

I am an analytical person. I analyze things a lot. If you didn't know that, it is probably because I mostly do it in my head. It mostly comes out when I am with other analytical people, or I analyze it while I am speak (so that might be one of the reasons I might talk so much!)
So this past weekend especially, I think I over analyzed some things too much and forgot for a while what I knew. Thinking and believing the truth and trusting God that He knows and has things all figured out, and that I don't always need to. I think I without knowing it gave into the enemy's tricks and lies.
This, mixed with realizing that my walk with God was not where it should be, and analyzing that as well, was dificult.

Here are some scriptures I heard in yesterday's Message at church. The message had nothing at all to do with what I was struggling with, but theses, I believe, were God's words to me.

1Jn 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

Mat 11:28-30 Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

So yea. This kind of describes what has been going through my mind as of lately.

God is faithful and has showed Himself strong on my behalf, because "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. John 8:36

I have been blessed with an amazing, encouraging, godly husband who has helped me become more focused on what I should be focusing on.

I am not much of a writer even though I enjoy it, but I am working on it.

I envy people sometimes who have the gift of thinking deep or analytical, or whatever. But I have come to realize, now that I realize that is what I am, it is not always a blessing. There will always be an abuse of gifts that have been granted to us and we have to make sure we use them properly and to God's glory, or you are just going to get into a mess!

I hope this has been a blessing. If you have any input and feed back, feel free to comment!

Cheerio!
