Success

“Commit your actions to the Lord, and your plans will succeed.”Proverbs‬ ‭16‬:‭3‬ ‭NLT‬‬

We have an idea that success means a windfall, a promotion, winning a lover, scoring a bargain. However, success can be simply seeking the Lord before exploding on a frustrating person. Today I had one of these.

I already was being taxed by helping an anxious friend ready for a long stay overseas when another firmed who tends to be needy tried to gain my attention when I was already busy with anxious friend.

Dealing with anxious depressive people can be very draining and I find myself longing to have a holiday from both, especially after also studying hard and doing a final exam last week. To top it off getting up at 5am daily for prayer with my church and forgoing some food, I was fit to be tied. So, I prayed for help on the way to the chemist to buy supplies for my needy friend. I was able to firmly tell my friend to do as she was advised if she continually wanted my help, deal with her anxiety and don’t see me as the life source, please!

I am grateful for the Holy Spirit’s help as I navigated surgical dressings at the chemist. He is good! Thank you Lord!

Don’t deal with things on your own. Explosions are hurtful and messy!
