Today, something happened and it was on my mind for a while and popped back up again. I was offended by something that had happened in the work place, because I felt like I had been slighted. I was upset for like 15 minutes and then I did they whole " They'll see when I'm famous, they'll wish they hadn't said that to me" number...then it hit me.
Little Joyce Meyer's voice popped up in my head, haha. I heard her say, don't be offended. Then I remembered one time she talked about being offended and moving on from being offended. So I was like she's right, I don't need to be offended. The only person I answer to is God ( and my parents ) If I would have stayed offended by what was done, I would just grow sour feelings for that person, and probably become a little witchy towards the subject of them in a way. It bothered me because the person didn't know the whole story, if they had I would have ( maybe ) but not really, been ok with their actions.
So I just thought I would write this and say try not to stay offended for too long and really think about if it's worth your time to be offended and upset by this person, because most likely they are just going to go on about there day and not be phased by it. So I just let this roll off my back.
Another thing I've been thinking about is a story that was in Self magazine, basically asking why aren't you living the life you want? What is holding you back from it, and how can you make it happen. I've been thinking about that a lot, there are quite a few things I need to finish up before I could really go onto living that life.
I will say this though, God has opened my eyes up to a whole new world. I feel like he is preparing me for the journey, and I am so very thankful that he opened my eyes to what I needed to know before really embarking in this.
Also NEEDTOBREATHE = LOVE! Seriously lovelovelove them! & the fact that they are a Christian band and give an uplifting, positive message is beautiful. I highly recommend them.
That's all for now! Be blessed :) God is great! xo. - Jynnea
