Reminder from God

Note: Start at "The Why"

What Happened:
 I woke up early this morning with a song on my heart and in my head that says:

"I'm trading my sorrow, I'm trading my shame and I'm laying it down for the joy of the Lord
I'm trading sickness, I'm trading my pain, I'm laying it down for the Joy of the Lord!
Yes Lord, yes Lord, Yes Yes Lord, Amen.

I'm pressed but not crushed, persecute and not abandon, strapped down but not destroyed. And I'm blessed beyond the curse for  His promise will endure that his joy is going to be my strength. Sorrow may last for a night BUT JOY comes in the morning."

I can do nothing but cry and praise. My body is in pain but He gave me a song to get me through the day. Today is a long day at work but I am ready. I love when He gives me something that reminds me that He is here, He sees me, He hears me, He will heal my body! I stand firm on His promise! I am ready!

How I feel:
Motivated, Happy, I can do this because I know He is here

Reflecting

Hello everyone!!! I have spoken of my relationship with God in a few post but I wanted to make it clear!! I am a Christian, non-denominational, although I belong to a baptist church now. I have had several moments where I have clearly heard from God and consider myself to try and live a life pleasing to Him. Do I mess up? YES! Do I fall short? YES! Does He keep loving me? Thankfully YES!! With that being said I know that God is a healer, deliverer, way maker, provider, protector, source of peace. He is anything and everything. Through this journey (115 days) I have realized that God speaks to me sometimes through songs. I guess because I love music. I have referenced this in a couple posts. Well today was no different. In church the choir sang    Made A Way  by Travis Greene. The lyrics that really hit home for me are                               "You made a way, I don't know how but you did ...

Bang Dem Sticks

Note: Start at "The Why" What Happened: I teach a class called Pound. It is amazing class with drumsticks that you bang together and lots of movement up and down, on the ground, back and forth. It is an amazing full body workout that I absolutely love. Today's class was horrible! Absolutely horrible! I went to hit my sticks together and my pointer finger radiated with pain. I dropped my sticks (which very rarely happens to me). I kept teaching but let go of my left stick. When we got down to the ground my hip area hurt so bad that I could barely sit, much less move side to side. I was in so much pain throughout the class. I managed to smile through the class but I just wanted to cry. But there are people to help get fit and no time or crying. My fingers also feel like I have blisters on them when I text or use them to type. And without texting you cant post to FB, IG, or talk to friends. I do all of the above a lot. Today was a very quiet day. How I felt: Scared. Wi...

The Longest Night

Note: Start reading at "The Why" What Happened: Two days ago I quit taking my Neurontin cold turkey. I did not know that you were suppose to wen yourself off gradually........I went from taking 1500mg to nothing. Help me Holy Spirit, Sweet baby Jesus! I need the father, the son and the Holy Ghost!!! All three right now! I am sweating like I  have been working out, my head hurt soooo bad and I cant stop trembling. This post wont be long because my vision is a little blurry but I wanted to write to explain the way I feel right now. It is 3 am and I have been up since 11 pm trying to not throw up or call my mom crying. I googled reactions to coming off of  Neurontin and I match most of them. Oh dear LAWD!!!! If this is what it feels like to be on drugs and come off....Never get on them but if you do just stay on them (yes this feeling is that bad). Every time I close my eyes there are images of Daffy Duck, Elmer Fudd and other characters from Looney Tunes but only half of th...
