The times we're living in are definitely not for the weak. No amount of pills, alcohol, food, cigarettes or any other old comforts are enough to anaesthetize us from all of the chaos in the world.
People can't shrink into bi-polarism, depression or anxiety anymore in efforts to dull themselves from the troubles of the world. Increased dosages of prescription drugs only make matters worse.
We're all experiencing personal upsets that we'd rather not have to deal with, especially regarding finances -- at least I am. :)
And nothing in the world is there to assuage our ills.
It's time to reach higher now...to dig deeply into our spiritual selves to find solutions. We can no longer think of God as a last resort, peripherally, or as a good idea we'll explore at some later point in our lives.
I have found that God is my only answer.
None of my good ideas, talents or gifts -- of which I have many -- are getting me where I need to go, as quickly as I believe I need to get there.
Nope -- it seems my life is at a complete standstill while things I need seem to be slipping away or just beyond my reach.
This is a horrible position for a driven, anxietyprone, semi-control freak to be in!
Yes, but it seems to be a necessary experience for me, the things I'm facing that I can no longer avoid. It sucks...big time!
It occured to me this morning that my roots are being tested -- spiritual roots. Do I really believe that God will turn things around for the good in my life? What is my true relationship with God like if I'm crashing and burning emotionally over external circumstances that I can't control?
Yes...I'm enduring a little root testing, but no matter how much I complain about the situations I'm facing and how unfair it is, and how it makes no sense...I still have a sneaking suspicion that I'll be alright. :)
