I feel wonderful really...
Ive never been so sure of myself or where Im going or what I want to do with my life.
Ive never been so ok with myself, and who I am, and been completely content just being alone.
Im doing great in my classes, and Im falling more in love with the Lord and his Grace everyday.
So why do I have to be bombarded everyday with messages that Im so wrong? Why do I have to be called out about the way Im living so often?
Couldnt your understanding of me simply be off? Could it be possible that YOU cant see the whole picture because you havent lived my life??
Why dont you STOP pretending you know everthing for like 3 days, and let someone elses perspective settle in?
Cause you have no idea how much doubt and pain you cause when you dont stop and think before you say things, or jump to conclusions.
MEANWHILE.
Max Lucado is teaching me a thing or two about learning to get over such times in my life, and how to not resort to coping mechanisms, or comfort tools to make it through my anxiety in life. In his book called "Facing Your Giants" he talks about a particular point in Davids life where he overcame.
"The Jebusites pour scorn on David like Satan dumps buckets of discouragement on you:
-You'll never overcome your bad habits.
-Born white trash; gonna die white trash.
-Think you can overcome your addiction? Think again.
If you have heard the mocking David heard, your story needs the word David's has. Did you see it? "Nevertheless" "Nevertheless, David took the strong hold." Wouldnt you love God to write a "nevertheless" in your biography? We all need a nevertheless. And God has plenty to go around. What God did for David he can do for you."
Learning and Overcoming each and every day.
With Love, and the hope of understanding,
Leslie Ann
