My DaY tOdAy..

Everyday is a good day, some are just better than others; just because the day didn't go the way that I wanted it to, doesn't mean that it was necessarily a bad day. I woke up in a pretty good mood, nothing unusual. I got up ate a bowl of cereal, my utmost favorite and brushed my teeth. Pretty normal. I went to plato's closet and dropped off three bags of clothes. Two hours later I came back. My brother and sister had dropped clothes off as well. My little sister profited $40 while my borther profited $80! So I was for sure I was getting paid! When the clerk told me my total I was in complete shock! My total came to $5.60! Yes! 5 FREAKIN' DOLLARS! I can't even lie I was pissed! More about the principle than the money. I thought it wasn't fair and slick had an upside down smile, I hate when that happens. I tried to brush it off, because it wasn't a big deal, I just thought that it meant God was going to provide for me financially in the future! We later went to the mall, which was cool. I saw an old friend from school, so that got my mind off of finances for a while. Then a so called "Friend" texted me; displaying her selfishness, which pissed me off again! I think it was just the enemy. I hope I passed that test! I shouldn't have thought those thoughts, I asked God to forgive me. We also went to Wally World, momma bought me some new undergarments, I know exciting huh?! (I don't mean that sarcastically). They're pretty! Then I later went to the good will to drop off all the clothes that plato's closet "did not want", I figured someone would benefit from my clothes and needed them more than I did, so what if I wasn't getting the money in my pocket. The doctor said that sometimes what people do, say or act will affect us. It's not a good thing it's just human nature. Jesus was affected by what other people did and said, when he wept for Jerusalem. But we cannot let that rob us of our joy or determine if we are going to have a good day. We have an internal joy that does not relate to our "current" surroundings and circumstances. Thank you Lord for your grace! I know it's not possible to be happy allllllll the time, trust me I know! But I just wish I wouldn't have let what those other people did affect and rob me of having a good day. People do not define me or my life, so why did I let it affect my day today? I took a nap afterwards which was the highlight of my day! Well that and that wisdom that that wonderful man shared with me! I am not sure exactly what God is doing, but I know he has my best interest at heart, and wants better for me than I want for myself. A lot of the times when we go through things, it's for the benefit of other people(we get blessed to be a blessing); we never know who we can bless, so that's why we have to endure, because of the bright future a head of us (Heaven). Thank you Lord! Lord, I pray you give me tolerance and awareness. I pray for humbleness and meekness. I pray for assurance and a calm temper! Thank you for your Word! THAT MAN is truly blessed! Lord I pray you bless him tremendously! I love you Lord! Amen! :)
