Past few days i have become increasingly depressed. And increasingly nonfunctional, just wanting to sleep and not move. Finally, today.. I got up. Began reading a Christian book. And it dawned on me. I can choose to be miserable and wallow in self pity, or i can choose to look up and have faith in God and step out regardless of how i am feeling inside. I am learning when i reach out to help others, suddenly life feels better. Im working on putting God first. Its not an automatice response for me. I wish i could say it was, but it isnt. Whats amazing tho, when i have stopped and truly sought God, He met me and helped me through. So, instead of just hanging on during the storms,,, i wanna learn to dance in the rain!!!

Rejoice, sister....you have learned the biggest key to joy in Christ....stirring yourself up in faith. It is OUR responsibility to keep ourselves stirred in the Word.

You're first dance lesson is complete.

Love your heart and willing spirit,
