Thank you so much, friends, for chiming in (and astimegoeson, for stopping by!)
Theoden, I had intended to point-by-point reply to your first post on my last thread. But dude, I am so tired. I keep reading that post over and over, and basically just nodding my head the whole time. Which is why I copied it to this current thread.
I agree with the whole bloody thing. The detach/fulfillment making one more attractive; absolutely. The making a Gratitude List at the end of each day. I did that for a while, pre-bomb, and forgot about it. Great idea, and I do it mentally but need to WRITE IT DOWN. you're right.
I have NOT written down small goals and I should. I've kind of avoided that b/c all my goals have not come to fruition, but I should break it down smaller. Bricks in the wall, instead of trying to have a building appear.
And funny you should say it, but every time I feel defeated and hopeless, I am always thinking: THIS IS THE GOD WHO RAISED THE DEAD, FOR PETE'S SAKE. MY MARRIAGE IS A CAKEWALK TO HIM. Thanks for affirming that.
Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Is 43:18-19
If it seems slow in coming, wait. It's on its way. It will come right on time. Hab 2:3
