As with most people, I go through stages of feeling sorry for myself. Sometimes, like with the loss of a loved one, it's understandable. Other times, when things don't seem to go my way, within my time frame, it's not.
Either way, I pride myself on snapping out of it - with the help of God, but also on my own. I believe He expects me to take charge of my life, too.
The past several months, it's been pretty challenging. From a long-lasting bout of insomnia to a herniated disk that has severely extended down my left leg to a general increase of stress at work ... I feel as though I'm being tested as a modern-day Job.
Immediately after typing that or thinking such a ridiculous thing, I realize that I am no way close to being as challenged as the Biblical figure. Yet, try as I might, I seem incapable of taking charge to improve my condition and God seems to be allowing it to exist.
Fortunately, I have Kris in my life to help me through it.
For now, I take it one day at a time and cling to the belief that eventually, I will be a better Christian because of my resoluteness.
