I tend to get really panicked over things. Little or big, it doesn't much matter-- I can get equally upset over either. And then I can only see one thing: all the bad things. I am pretty much incapable of seeing anything good. Or I see the good things, but they don't fully process as my mind pushes them away to be replaced with every bad thing that could be imagined. Not my best trait...
So a good slap in the face is necessary on occasion. It's too bad they can't be physical slaps, as that might make more of an impact... But word-slaps can do a good score for me.
So I recently had an encounter where a "word-slap" came into play. Thank you Lord, for giving me a friend who is not afraid to stand up to me and tell me I'm being an ungrateful bitch. (Or just ungrateful...)
So, I am awakened and am ready to crawl out of the hole of self-pity I've been wallowing in. It's time to thank God for amazing opportunities and trust him with the rest!
