Funky

So I have been feeling kind of funky emotionally in the last few weeks and I have found it a lot harder to choose happiness each day. I decided to sit down with myself and figure out what’s up? What has been different for me in the last few weeks?

I realized that I have been so busy that I have been slacking on my conscious input of uplifting/Christian things into my brain. For some reason, when things get hectic in my life, I tend to choose the easy route vs the beneficial route. (P.S. The easy route rarely ends up being easier in the long run, but that’s a topic for another time.)

One of my favorite quotes is “You are the books you read, the movies you watch, the music you listen to, the people you spend time with, the conversations you engage in. Choose wisely what you feed your mind.” ~ Unknown. For the last few weeks, I’ve not spent as much time in the Word or in prayer. I have been listening to Top 40 music in my car, instead of hooking up my phone and playing Christian music. I’ve been watching more tv and reading less of my favorite Christian authors, etc. I never really thought about it before but all of those little things add up to a big difference.

As soon as I realized what was going on, I made the conscious decision to get back into my good habits and to put the extra effort into the things that help keep my mind Christ focused and my emotions healthy. I have been feeling much better ever since.

Blessings,

Angela
