Thankful Thursday: Official and everything!

At some point this afternoon, i put two and all the fb and twitter updates i was seeing today together, remembered that it was Thursday...and it hit me that this was a very very actual day for a TT :D Happy Thanksgiving i guess...even if someone rightly pointed out, that for all non US residents, it's tantamount (what sort of Ponce uses "tantamount" in actual sentences?..anyways) to Americans saying Happy Osun (whatever that is)...anywho..any reason to be thankful is good enough for me :D

I am thankful thay God turns my frowns upside down. He does this in ways that calm my anxieties and remind me that He's got my back. For some inexplicable reason, i keep forgetting this and trying to handle everything...then proceed to fail woefully at it, and collapse in gratitude when He comes through and makes all the problems go away..then we sit back and have a good laugh and it's another lesson learned. I don't care how overwhelmed you are, or how hopeless you think a situation looks from where you're sitting, standing or curled up crying...He will stupefy you when He makes it all better.

Sometimes (a LOT of the time) it's mad difficult to sit there and act all believerish and positive. It's downright frustrating even, because human logic is constantly stage whispering at you what a fool you look, believing everything is fine when it's all crashing down all around you...I've been there this week, several times. I was there today..i will have a bruise on my arm tomorrow to prove it. I lost my cool, i forgot to be all positive..yes, i'm human..and my tears were 75% pure frustration..because it seems so unfair at the moment...

It's evening now..and everything that was causing me to be anxious? done. I was in a panic as to how i'd sort it all, BP up and all over everywhere, thinking of what on my list had to go...and you know what? everything that i had lined up (save for the assignment that i need to copy and paste together until it looks like an original piece :P ) is all done. That is a testimony. He is everything and more than worthy of our 100% trust and love and gratitude...now don't get it twisted..it's properly difficult to go about 24/7 in this state of mind..and that's okay..He understands this, and doesn't demand it of you from the get go...even when you're pro...you're still human...so it's okay..just don't let it turn into a road block, or a "turn around and stop" or "stop and turn around" sign...

abi it's Matthew 6&7...do not be anxious...do not be anxious..chant that like a mantra...He's got this...if i list out the ways i've seen this happen in the last week alone....that's what i'm on....take a deep breath, and stop getting in His way so much...
