"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.
Each day has enough trouble of its own."
~Matthew 6:34
Lately, i've had this feeling like i've lost myself. I've fallen down a rabbit hole, but i left me up by the tree. I'm constantly in shifting moods; now i'm wonderful and happy, now i'm angry and depressed. Could be PMS. Or it could be something i ate. Or maybe it's just me.
These last couple days have been horrible in my perspective, but i have no clue why. Stress, unstable emotions, the whole shabang. And I feel even more horrible, because this anger and frustration is spilling onto everyone i love, no matter how i try to keep it in to myself. I need a mental health day, so i can just explode already without getting debris on everyone.
[sit in darkness, silence rings
hearing sorrow, feel its stings
now anger, loathing, take their turns
speaking acid, how it burns]
God has shown me a lot lately; His love, His forgiveness, a pinpoint veiw of His picture of my life. But He has also shown me who i am, who i was, and who i'm becoming. Who i am doesn't like who i was, and doesn't want what i'm becoming. So who am i? I am a child of God, a friend of Jesus, a servant to the only one keeping me alive. It's as if i'm getting to know Jesus all over again for the first time. I've grown close to what He says, yet become distanced from Him. Like people you only talk to online; you know them, but you don't know them. I don't want to be a Jesus groupie anymore.
But God showed me something amazing this week--He still answers prayer. I prayed for my friends, and they were healed and comforted. I prayed for my tears, and God gave them to me. I cried, truly cried, for the first time since ATF, and before that i didn't cry for more than a year. The amazing thng was, it wasn't at some big convention or gathering. It was sunday night, when this all started, and i was talking to Jesus. I didn't expect them, they just came. I'm so joyful, i thank God for tears.
