Hey, I decided to delete that last post, but thank you for those that suffered reading it. I feel much better now. It wasn’t anything serious. I am really hoping to figure out my inflammation. So far I just know ;it happens anytime I eat or take anything my body doesn’t like. The hard part is figuring out what that is. So far I can only tolerate some supplements. It’s getting dark early and it’s getting rough. Many of my friends who struggle with seasonal affective disorder as I do, are already struggling to get up in the morning. So if you don’t have that struggle, check on your friends. If you do, check on them. It’s almost Christmas so emotions are loose. Anxiety and depression are rampant. Yes, I believe God can give us victory. I also believe He asks us to be His instruments sometimes. James 5:16b comes to mind,” The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.”
I am trying to stop the people pleasing. Doing for others is wonderful when it’s healthy, but I now recognize there’s a line I shouldn’t cross. Problem is that I don’t always see the line. I asked for something today and yes, I felt guilty. Then I felt guilty for feeling guilty. Ug! This weekend I saw my limit come and go so I did walk away from some responsibilities I was unable to do. It felt good to be strong enough to do that and two days later I am a wimp again. Regardless, it’s on me to be honest not on my friends and family to guess. So trying and sometimes failing. I am thankful that God is still working. I realized that although it’s small, I have changed. All that to say, don’t give up on people too quickly.
