I had remind myself that it’s okay when things are going well. Yes, I know that sounds strange, but when you’re used to depression or hardship or struggle; it can seem uneasy when you have a few weeks of good things happening to you. BUT, I am reminded that I prayed to the Lord for the struggle to be over, I prayed for blessings to overflow in my life. So when it finally comes, why am I uneasy? Why am I looking for the bottom to drop or for the next dart to fly? As much as I preach about thinking positive and looking on the bright side, sometimes I fall victim to doubt and fear too. And guess what? That’s okay. More and more, I am becoming comfortable with being vulnerable. I saw a little sign while I was shopping that said, “It’s okay to make mistakes”. It caught my eye because it’s so true. None of us is perfect. We don’t have to prove anything to anyone. Just be YOUR best self.

I fully trust that God will put HIS “super” on my “natural” and that will get me through the day. It takes the pressure off of me and puts the burden where it needs to be, on someone who is quite capable of handling my issues. Daily, I surrender all! And so far, it’s working for me.
