Thanksgiving Alone

It's my first Thanksgiving away from home without my family. I'm sorta :( to be by myself but in some ways :) and thankful that the Spirit of the Lord is with me. I'm never truly alone.

I woke up this morning with something weighing on my heart, the same thing I was thinking/praying about before I went to sleep last night. Actually it's been on my mind for the past few days, I just don't really know what to do about it. Sometimes I think too much and waste a lot of time dwelling on the decision I made and questioning if it was wrong or right. I'm always afraid of saying or doing something that I shouldn't have, afraid of inflicting hurt or pain on others, most afraid of sinning against my GOD and displeasing Him. Sighhhh I don't want to think about it anymore... I really need to hear GOD's voice, I need wisdom and discernment, especially since I'm really no good and inexperienced in this "particular area"... Sighhh, maybe I'm also overthinking everything.

I'm so lost. I just want everything to be simple. Actually I don't know what I want anymore. I think I know but I actually don't really, maybe I never even really knew in the first place. Only GOD knows what's best and I need to keep believing in His Sovereignty and goodness, and that in His perfect timing things will be made known to me. Ecclesiastes 3:11. Until then I just need to keep waiting on the LORD. My soul waits and longs for JESUS. Only JESUS, give me JESUS. Proverbs 4:23

I checked my email this morning and someone had sent me this singing greeting card. Twas really sweet, I replayed it like 5 times:

Happy moments, praise GOD
Difficult moments, seek GOD
Busy moments, believe GOD
Quiet moments, worship GOD
Waiting moments, trust GOD
Painful moments, pray GOD
Lovely moments,thank GOD

This Thanksgiving, I've much to be thankful for. But I'm especially thankful for Jesus Christ and the presence of GOD.

  1. Hang in there. Cling to the truth. Keep believing. And continue to trust in Him who will never leave your side. He'll always be there to guide you where He wants you to be. May not be today or tomorrow, or even months or years from now. But our God is faithful and always keeps His promises.
