When all hell has broken loose in your life and everything that could go wrong has gone wrong, what do you do? That's what I've been asking myself all year. 2014 has been challenging for me in every way imaginable. I've stressed, I've cried, I've wanted to give up, I've gotten angry at life, I've been depressed because of life, I've felt alone and lonely, I've felt inadequate to do the jobs that God has given me, I mean name an emotion and I guarantee that I've experienced it this year. Now I'm not telling y'all this for pity or sympathy. I'm telling you bc my struggles may be your way of getting through your trial easier. You have to take life one day at a time. You can't focus on the troubles that tomorrow may bring, or the issue that's waiting for you next week. Give today your all. Period. Focus on how you can handle one issue today. When you focus on negative stuff it consumes you. Don't focus on it. For every bad thing that is happening, there are 10 positive things that are happening as well. Pick something positive to direct your energy to. Encourage yourself, pray when you don't feel like it, read your bible when you don't feel like it. Have a real heart to heart with God everyday! He's listening, even when you feel like he isn't. And one day you'll realize why everything that's going crazy in your life right now HAD TO HAPPEN. This course that you are on is not by chance. He's not picking on you, he hasn't forgotten about you. He just needs one of his strongest soldiers to undergo this battle for him. He needs your testimony to save someone else. So while it hurts, praise him anyway. When it seems impossible and never ending, praise him anyway. When you go to sleep with tears in your eyes, praise him anyway. Don't forget about everything that he has already brought you through. This time will be no different. I love you guys! I'm praying for you... #SheisShay
