Determined to get a good night rest, I prayed for God to have his will, and went to bed at 9:30pm….I would see the election results when I woke up.
I woke up to a heartbreak 💔 and literally cried for an hour before working out. Even though I wanted to stay in the safety and peace of my home where I didn’t have to fake like it was a “good morning”, I forced myself to attend my gym class. But as soon as I finished the grief returned.
The tears began to fall again as I started my workday. After a couple of hours, I knew I wouldn’t be able to get anything done, so I made the decision to take a mental health day off —- to pray and meditate and focus on the good things. God has been so good to me and I had to make space to remember my blessings.
Phillipians 4:8
Finally brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable—if there is any moral excellence and if there is anything praiseworthy—dwell on these things.
