Hello everybody, I want some salad but I didn't feel like fixing it. It's already made, I like my croutons and crackers (are in the hall closet). All of the extras seemed like too much work so I just ate some leftover pizza.

Sometimes it seems as if there are situations that seem like it's just too much, and you want to throw in the towel, whether it's dealing with relationships or taking care of someone or just the everyday things that seem to fall into your lap. Having the feeling like you are overwhelmed can cause you to shut down or seek solace in places that you should not. Before you lose it, in the middle of the chaos, stop and take a breath. If need be go sit and close your eyes, and let a few moments pass to calm yourself down. Then address the situation with a praying spirit. You'll see that love conquers all, and you will not be forced to accept ill treatment nor will you dish it out. Well, I guess I need to get up and get that salad, and enjoy it.



PSALM 61:1-4 ESV

Hear my cry, O God, listen to my prayer: from the end of the earth I call to you when my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I, for you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the enemy. Let me dwell in your tent forever! Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings! Selah!
