I haven't had my best day today. Work was a little rough and I burned the first dinner I made. The second dinner was too salty so we settled for fast food. I've been a little grumpy and I just don't like it. I still have the joy of the Lord, and always will, it's just a little deeper than usual. I guess I'm writing this because a lot of non-Christians seem to love it when Christians get a little down. They look for it and seem to get some kind of deep satisfaction from it. It's only natural to get a little down sometimes, the trick is to not let it ruin your witness. (which I probably did) I can't be that person that's upbeat and cheery twenty four/ seven, you know the one, that person that acts like an over hyper miniature poodle or something! I do, however, find great joy in knowing that God loves me no matter what my mood or frame of mind. I also find great joy in knowing that He has forgiven me! I am free from sins bondage whether I'm happy, sad, mad or any other rang of emotions.
John 8:34 Jesus answered them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave to sin". 35 "And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but the son abides forever." 36 "Therefore, if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed."
Just thinking about that is putting me in a much better frame of mind. Thank You Jesus!
