Dear Reader,
Just recently, I was attacked by the evil one. Last night I began worrying about driving; actually it was a small distance to where I needed to go. I began to feel anxious and I allowed the anxiety to escalate. What happened was I lost a lot of sleep and was unable to go with my husband to a dental appointment. His appointment went well but I felt bad that I didn't go with him. I have felt tired all day but I want to learn from this and share this information with you.
No matter how you feel at night--worried, frightened, anxious--whatever it might be---don't give up or give in. Instead of feeling bad all night and giving into fear, focus on something happy and positive. Get away from the negative and fearful thoughts--think about something happy that occurred during the day and zero in on that.
Also, do some deep breathing. Breathe in for about 7 counts and then slowly let out the air on the count of 10. Do this several times and know that the good Lord will be with you and guide you out of fear or depression. He wants you well; allow Him to help you. And, keep in mind what author Rick Warren said about thinking---Think, Feel and Act in positive ways. Think positive, feel positive and act positive, Sound simple? It is--Think positive and happy, Feel positive and happy and Act positive and happy. Do this simple routine and feel free!
Always remember what Jesus said, "I am with you always--even to the end. And, Jesus never lies; He always tells the truth and He love for you and me is Never Ending!
