Sovreign

My life flashed before my eyes tonight.

I was driving on the interstate and a car was tailing me and another car was to the right so as soon as i could move past the car to the right i did, but the car that was tailing me had the same idea and we almost collided going 60+ on the interstate. My life was at stake tonight!

A few minutes before that I prayed to God that i would make it home safely. I have been having trouble with my car for a few weeks. It has been making a put putting sound.

All of this put into perspective the Sovreignty of God for me tonight. We learned about it in bible study a few months ago.

I am not an ultra religious person, but i believe in God and I believe Jesus is my Savior and i really enjoy reading the bible. I am perfect by no means, you can catch me dropping the f-bomb here and there.

The sovreignty we learned about was found in the book of Habbakuk. When the people were doing wicked things and Habbakuk was crying out to God asking why are you blessing them and prospering them? And God totally said it is in my control i have a plan and a purpose for what i am doing.

This made me think of my own life. I have not always been a bible thumper living under the grace of God yet the grace of God has always protected me. There are times i should have been arrested like when i was flying 90+ mph down George Washington Highway through all the red lights. Or i couldve been over in Afghanistan when i was sending ISIS out all those cryptic tweets and they were literally trying to recruit me.

Yet, here i am writing this blog by the grace of God. Because He is Sovreign. I may not know what He has in store for me. I am not in control over my own life. I am handing over the wheel. Steer me in Your direction God.

It is literally by the grace of God and the fact that He is Sovreign and Lord of all that i am even sitting here sharing my story with you tonight. To Him be all the glory and praise. I am thankful for my life and i believe i have a purpose and day by day i am discovering it more and more.

Goodnight :)

The Wait Game

I have been at Atlantic Orthapedic for 3 years and 2 months. It has given me the time I need to gain stability. It has really given me the space and grace I needed to fully develop into my mental illness. It allowed me time to grow as a person. It offered me so many different things, and I will always be grateful for that, but I always felt like I was playing the waiting game. I was waiting for something bigger and better to come along. I was waiting for my time to fly. I was waiting until I became strong enough to stand tall on my own two feet. And now that time has come and I am ready to make moves and really make something of myself. I am on my way to making those moves. This morning I made my first move and I did something HUGE! And I am proud of myself for making that bold move and stepping out of my comfort zone and really going for it. And if it doesn’t pan out? Well, I have an option B. I am not putting all my eggs in one basket. All I know is my time here at Atlantic Or...

The Lucky One

I left work early today. I got in my car and i called Kaitlyn and i lost it. I cried hysterically because of the defeat i felt for leaving work early to come home and take my medicine and take a nap. I do not like it. But perhaps our strengths lie in knowing our limitations in our weaknesses and not exceeding them and going beyond them? Funny thing, i did the ultimate shameful no no thing to do. I lowered my medication because i thought i was ok. I jumped down from 120 to 60 of Latuda. You might be shaking your head. My therapist did. So now here i am typing this and force feeding myself mac and cheese so i can have enough calories in my system to take my Latuda 60 and then 60 more later tonight to balance out my system. Why did i suddenly drop my meds? Well you see, i have been reading the bible a lot and i have been conversing with God a lot and i asked him to show me a sign that i should or shouldn't be on medication. So as i began reading the bible i read the scriptur...
