Frustrations

Okay, so yesterday was frustrating. I won't go into details because I try not to share too many of my personal things, and I certainly don't want to voice my frustrations for the enemy to hear. We'll just leave it that yesterday had its share of frustrations. I don't know about you but I'm not always real good when I get frustrated. As a matter of fact, my frustration usually causes me more frustration.

So, this morning I am thinking about frustrations. As I was praying this morning, I shared with GOD that I didn't know what He was trying to show me but it had to be something. I also told Him that I didn't want to miss whatever it was that He was trying to show me and that I am obviously a slow learner. GOD understands; He'll help us through.

Today's word is something I came across in my search to explain frustration. It simply says, "Trials aren't meant to hurt you but to build you up to be more like JESUS."

So, while yesterday, if you'll excuse the term, SUCKED, it is going to help me become more CHRIST like if I will use the challenges appropriately. Now, we all know that that is easier said than done. However, I want to keep this at the forefront; I want to keep this in mind when those challenging days come my way. GOD isn't trying to hurt me; He's trying to help me. He's not trying to strip me; He's trying to stretch me. He's not trying to make me groan; He's trying to make me grow.

Be Blessed,
