So today started off with me not wanting to get up. Reason being, I got in at 1:30 after driving for a total of 14 hours from Grove City, PA. Tiredness loomed over me all the way to work and gave me a bad outlook for the day. My attitude got worse when I found out our internet wasn't working at work, so I therefore could not download programs I needed to to get some fundraising done. Great. Then, my camera charger blew up when I plugged it into an outlet, which then preceded to catch on fire. Yippee. This day=amazing. I can't charge my camera, get online to get stuff done, and I am super tired. I was bumming around upstairs, complaining out loud to myself, and my friend Aaron Cieply suggested I go and pray for my supporters and just spend time with Jesus. So I sucked it up and grabbed a notebook that I used to write in (the last entry was in April!) and went to pray. I opened up the notebook and a couple things fell out, that brought a lot of joy to me. Two, were of art pieces of mine, and one was a sheet of paper that had a list of Gods promises and work done in me. This boosted my spirits and I started praying and thanking God for all the people He has brought into my life to support me and pray for me. As I was writing these prayers down I felt my negativity melting away and the joy of the Lord infiltrating my heart. I then went into praying and asking God for continuous provision and I was reminded (by myself) that I need a good play-around winter coat (i have a nice pea-coat, but it is really nice, not sledding material). So I finished praying and I got a call from my friend Laura Messina, and she said she was in the neighborhood and wanted to take me out and buy me a Christmas gift! So, I got a new winter coat, and some new technicolor socks! Oh how the Lord provides! So awesome. So ya, God provides and He is awesome. :) Choose Joy! I feel silly for being negative this morning, and am thankful for the accountability from my bro Aaron.
That's it! There's the story of the day :) Have a good one! :)
