All over the place...

3.4.13 - Day #20

Daily Devotional:

Revelations/Lessons/Thoughts: My mind has been all over the place these last few days.  I am focused on the opportunities in front of me but at the same time trying to gain some understanding on the "why me".  So rather than try to figure it out on my own I asked God.  My answer was...why not you!?!?  You were chosen because you can deal with it.

I will be honest and own the fact that I am sensitive about certain things in my life.  My time, my heart and my intelligence are three particular hot spots.  My time because it is the one resource I can't get back once it is gone.  My heart because I  keep it safe while also trying to keep it open to others.  My intelligence because I worked so hard to get strong grades and actually learn my crafts.  When you abuse any of those three, I get heated very quickly.  But it seems like last week and to some extent this weekend every one of those areas have been prodded, poked and fully assaulted.  

I will still own I was on edge after Friday and the weekend just kept on with the trying times.  But it is amazing how calm I became when I simply heard....why not you?!?!?  

I thought right!  Why not me?!?!  God built me to withstand any issues no matter how big or small.  With God's guidance, support and grace I am more than prepared.  He's still working on me in regards to my hot button issues but he has also protected me from people who may not have been honest or forthright in their dealings with me.  I am so blessed that he loves me that much.  I am also blessed that he has given me a heart that desires his will and understanding during my trials.  I AM thankful!:-)

Godspeed,
