little up and down...but the week is getting better

Today, I think I need to be very patient with myself. I have to learn to be content with my life, even with its excruciatingly slow pace. I have a long ways to go, but I've also come a long ways. I was reading this book the other day, one that I absolutely couldn't put down about how negative thinking stops the creative process...and it just confirmed in my heart and mind what my mom told me a while back--that when I say bad things about myself I agree with satan. I am God's daughter, and need to appreciate and respect myself, and what the Lord is doing in me!!
I got to get out of the house the last couple of days, yay!! My friend Mallory and I went out to eat Mexican food, hung out at the mall, and got frozen yoghurt. We had a great time and are going out dancing next week! :)
I am going to my turners meeting on Sunday for the first time since December, and am feeling a little anxious, but not too bad.
My Grandma and I argue a bit, but little by little a tough week is going back to a pretty even keel, and for that I am SO SOOO grateful! I got a bible today, and I am going to take very good care of it and give it special meaning as a means to my spirtual growth....I know I need the word of God to nourish me in Him.
Hugs...I hope you all have a weekend full of God's peace and joy, and remember how much He cares for you, and wants to take every burden on His own shoulders because He loves you that much.
God bless you,

P.S. Something I did good today, was take constructive criticism without hating myself...yay!
