Why is it, when we are sick of our lives that we just sit around complaining about it and dwelling on it, but never seem to do anything to change? Now, I'm not talking about things like our jobs, or where we live, and such, there are some things that we cannot change, but what we CAN change is our attitude about life!
When you're sick of a song you stop listening to it. When you're sick of a certain food, you stop eating it. So, when we are sick of our attitudes and how we handle things, why don't we just STOP!?!?
I'm talking to myself here! I get so wrapped up in feeling sorry for myself and dwelling on things that I shouldn't. Responding to things in ways that I'm later ashamed of. I overthink, I over react, I tear myself down, I put too much hope in things that I know won't happen and then beat myself about it.
God's plans for me are PERFECT! And that's something that I often forget. The more time I spend dwelling on things and being sick of myself, the more of a foothold I'm giving Satan. He loves that I'm having a hard time letting go of things and being happy and content with my life.
When God closes a door it just means that He has something better in store! You may spend some times wandering through the hallway, wondering which door is right, wondering which ones He's going to open for you, but you CANNOT give up! You may end up sliding down the wall, sobbing, but you have to pick yourself back up and keep going!
I used to be so in love with life, but I've lost that passion and zeal, and I want it back!! I want to challenge myself and you. If you feel stuck and are sick of your life, more specifically, how you are handling life, TAKE CONTROL! You have the power to change your mind set; to change your heart. Stop throwing pity parties for yourself and get up and do something about it! Take yours thoughts captive. Don't dwell on unnecessary things!
