Entry 6

Today's lessons spoke right to the root of my problem it seems. I have been feeling much better and then I allowed myself to get overwhelmed with so many discouraging thoughts that I started to feel just as I did when I frst started off. This is no easy task for me, I love love to think, I am a psychology major- i love to examine every tiny detail and go over every possible reason & outcome over and over in my mind. This is not healthy and it really does affect how I feel physically, it does drain my energy and it does leave me feeling anxious and worse than I did in the beginning. I have been using one of the passages chosen in the lesson and it's been helping but I am still struggling to Let Go. Will keep at it- "whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.” Phil 4:8
I have great confidence in God but I know I have a role to play in it all and I keep second guessing thatrole. This lesson made me realize that the most important role I have is to just believe, Let Go and Let God. How can I let God, if I haven't let Go?? It's as if I'm saying I know God can do it, but He needs my help when He in fact he doesn't. My prayer for today is to seek ways to strenghten my mind(soul)...I love the idea of the Miracle Grow. I have re-discovered my enthusiasm.
