7 Things

It has been a long 6-7 weeks. Tonight I realized a few things.

1. I am sad. This is a huge loss in my life and I cant expect people to understand what it is like. It is not like a death or the loss of a normal job.

2. I cannot expect myself to just move on and forget, regardless of current opinion of others. And others shouldn't expect this of me either and maybe its time to say something. See #1 for more information.

3. I am hurt. I was treated poorly and my spiritual life was ignored by my leaders. People lied to me. People are still lying about me and talking about me.

4. I may be a little more sensitive and emotional right now. I hate this, yet I need to remember that other people deserve the benefit of the doubt when I feel that they have hurt my feelings.

5. It is hard to be intimate with God and follow after Him with all I am when all of this other stuff going on. It is so much easier to focus on other things.

6. I need to be in the Word and in prayer DAILY! Even when I don't feel like it.

7. I love my dog, even if he does occasionally hog the WHOLE bed.

These are my thoughts in a nice short post.
