Do you ever have days where you just feel like the entire world is against you? Do you ever feel like everything you stand for is being challenged? I am having one of those days--one of those days when the devil is really succeeding in making me question every aspect of my life... people who say something that upsets you and it gets you thinking on whether or not it is true... things that don't go the way they were planned to go... thoughts that creep into your head and eat away at every decision you have ever made and whether it was the right one or not. These are the days that make me want to curl up in a ball in some dark place, fall asleep, and not ever have to deal with the world again. Nothing exceptionally bad happened today--really. It is just one of those moments where you wonder whether or not you are in the right place doing the right thing at that moment. However, someone was inspired to help me tonight, and they shared a scripture with me. It says, "A man's heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps." --Psalms 16:9. After a long inward battle today, I pushed all of those crazy thoughts out of my head and let my mind be at peace. I think I like it here. I know that there will be more of these days to come, but I know that no matter what, the Lord will always direct my steps if I trust Him to. I am going to wake up with a smile tomorrow and a little more confidence and trust than I had today. I know that He is up there, not puppeting my life, but watching it and nudging me in the better direction. Always.
