Yep, it's Definitely Monday!!

I had a chill but really nice weekend. No stress and no new problems. I Had a nice breakfast with a good friend who always encourages me spiritually. I got a nice unexpected gift from a BFF-can't wait to use it! A massage is definitely in my future.  My son's lacrosse team won their first game of the season. He scored a goal and had several awesome assists. It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon considering the crazy weather we've been experiencing here in the DMV. On Sunday, the Word was simple but rich. It was a timeless message that is life applicable. I tried a new recipe and the pickiest eater gave it a thumbs up. With a weekend like that I was ready for the week ahead! Or so I thought!

Monday roared in like it usually does. Not to major on the minor;  but let's just say it hit a real sour note rather quickly. I handled my business, said my piece,and went on about my business. I am so thankful that time, age, and experience have truly mellowed me out. I  am confident, honest, and intolerant of too much BS. I expect people to be responsible and professional in the workplace.  Once I say what I gotta say, I am done. No grudges, no revenge.  That being said, as I type this blog, I feel pretty peaceful. 

I can clearly see that the devil tried to trip me up. Funny, when you put emotion aside, things get real clear real quickly. God has been so ever present in all of my messy situations lately. My love for Him as well as my faith is growing daily. He has me in some difficult places right now but I am realizing that I have some lessons to learn. I am not in control. I need help. I have to learn to ask for it. I have to trust His plan and stop planning my way. Most importantly, not only do I need to pray my way through but I need to praise my way through. Almost everyday in the past seven days I had to listen to songs that strengthened and encouraged me. ( I will share the playlist one day soon). I have to remember to surrender everything to Him. You too can choose to do the same. Yep, it's definitely Monday! I survived and I praise God for the day I had. I am loving the God moments that I've been experiencing. God is never silent, we just have to focus on Him to see His Hand.
