God has a sense of humor!

God has a wonderful sense of humor...all the time!! Me - not so much...like right now!! I've been allowing life situations to take over and discourage and overwhelm me. I started a new business... CTMH - Independent Consultant, started a blog, got product and immediately got overwhelmed and discouraged by all my current responsibilities and obvious shortcomings. Long story short, I neglected both blogs, neglected anything even remotely creative, and instead focused on "being a martyr to my responsibilities." Well, the Lord showed me this was not healthy for myself and my family. I was recently diagnosed with RA and Fibromyalgia and allowed these health conditions, along with my hectic work schedule, and very large family responsibilities to more than discourage me. Sooo, after much prayer, I decided to take my life back and to live the way the Lord created me to be ...I'm MORE than a conqueror -Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. Romans 8:37. Anyway, so as I've tried to rev my motor, I logged into my other blog to finally tweak, post, etc. I CAN'T!!! my blog is inaccessible due to a Global Blogger Issue. Apparently this issue has been ongoing for at least 2 weeks. God is LOL'ing!!! Thank you Lord!! So, I'm left with: Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Amen!! Dear Heavenly Father, help me to remember today that even though I wanted to accomplish certain tasks - You ultimately know what I need to accomplish and that it does not always correspond to what You had in mind. I'm thankful for your loving kindnesses and that no matter how much I strive and struggle, it is You that gives the increase. ...So then neither is he that planteth anything, neither he that watereth; but God giveth the increase (1Cor. 3:17). Amen.
