I can't tell you how many times that has helped me this past week! I can HAVE whatever I want!! But, it might not be beneficial! So, I choose something better. It's amazing what one little phrase can do to steer you in the right direction.
I've had oral surgery this past week and it has been a struggle. Not the eating, it's difficult to eat with stitches in your mouth. But, my attitude and mood have been difficult. I'm trying to stay upbeat and then one of my grown children takes his frustration and anger out on me. This is when I usually cry and eat. But, not now. I'm angry, and I don't want to be angry. I really have to get in the Word and talk it out with the Lord. That's what I intend to do as soon as I finish this post. I am an emotional eater. Since I can't really do that right now, I find myself very frustrated! This is the part where I MUST crave God!! Why is this so difficult? I know He loves me, He can help me, He WANTS to help me! Why don't I RUN to Him?! I am surprised at myself and confounded by my own actions. Lord help me to run to You and nowhere else when my heart hurts, when I need help, when my emotions are raw. Please, Lord, help me.
