I'm not very good at writing long blog posts, so this will be a quick one. Life is stressful. I seem to always like to distract myself rather than actually dealing with stresses in my life. Maybe it is because I don't have the answers, so I try to put decision-making and dealing with problems off until I feel like I have the capacity to deal with them. Unfortunately, life doesn't stop happening long enough for me to figure everything out before I need to deal with it.
I try to lean on my own strength far too often. I am proud, I am selfish, I am unworthy. Despite all of these things, Jesus calls me his! I am his child, adopted into his family and he loves me! These things bring me joy, although I often focus more on the negative things, than on his truth and promises. God is good, even if life isn't all the time. His strength will suffice.
Be Blessed!
