Good morning everyone! How are you doing? Like really how are you doing? Because I’ve had to ask myself that ALL WEEK! This past week has been a mental rut, if you know what I’m saying 🥲 and for no reason. Like there is no reason for this rut, I just simply walked into it. So you know what I did? I prayed. I asked God every day to be with me, to keep my as positive as He could, to keep me standing and able. I sang worship music and let it out. Did I cry? I don’t remember but probably once haha 😂 but what I’m saying is that I gave my troubles and burdens to God and asked Him for a helping hand, because I know I cannot do this alone. So each morning before work and after work and during the night I asked Him to be with me. And yesterday seemed to be the first good, positive day I’ve had all week.
I got back into reading yesterday and I couldn’t be happier. Like this week was tough as heck on me, so tough that I didn’t pick up a book all week. Which is super odd for me since at the beginning of this month I said I wanted to read 4+ novels 😆 I don’t think I’m going to get that many since it’s already the 19th but I’m going to try, and I’m just proud I read a book and actually enjoyed myself while reading.
Speaking of tough, Brittany Lupton stated in her podcast “tough times don’t last, tough people do,” and I couldn’t agree with that statement more than I do now. I prayed for strength and positivity and that’s what God gave me. Little by little each day got better, and I am thankful for that. So when you feel in a rut, my advice to you is to PRAY to God, and ask for peace, positivity, and the strength to keep going, the energy to keep going, etc. And after doing that, make sure you’re actually working towards those things as well. Because as Libby Christensen explained “a bad day is still a luxury,” and that’s the truth! Also, remember that God doesn’t put you through anything you cannot handle!
Amen 🙏🏾
The Present Day
March 24th, 2023
HIIII, Hello, hey everyone! Ya girl is back and so sad about not posting a blog in like two weeks, but my mental health…let’s just say, was NOT ready. If you read my above (overdue) diary you know what I as going through, and what I did to overcome it. I will also confess that I had that same rut, went into that same rut, a couple days ago, and what did I do about it? Took the day off from work😅 AND took my own advice and sought out God and His wisdom! And where am I at now? Just fine, and proud of myself for noticing and realizing that I needed a break to reset myself and be the best version of me.
It’s okay to have bad days, just don’t dwell okay? Pray about it and act on it, and move forward. Ya hear me? OKAY💋
