I am trying to teach myself a new skill.
I am NOT faring well.
I feel like an idiot.
A bit ago, I felt myself becoming more and more anxious.
Here is where I KNOW I have grown. In times past, I would have allowed those anxious feelings to grow so loud I would not be able to move forward.
Then, I would start the blame game. I would blame me for feeling anxious. I would blame God for not keeping me calm. I would blame life for doing lifery things.
For good measure, I would find several other things to blame on MY anxiousness.
Instead, recognizing WHY I was anxious, I:
Put things down.
Took a breath.
Took a break.
THEN, I got back after it. Anxious grew bored with my tenacity/faith and went to find another sucker to sucker.
Be encouraged, beloveds. Keep standing on business. It’s not easy. It is doable.
The more I make it THROUGH the hard, the harder I want to try.
You SHALL make it. I have preparations in place for the winter storm that may put out the power in a few hours.
I’m learning how to maintain my joy, as I work THROUGH the hard. The ONLY way to get through tough times is to go through the tough time.
I am praying for all. If you have lost heart, that’s okay. I have enough faith for us all.
standing in the gap for all,
Cassandra
