...and I'm really grateful for those prayers, thank you! I'm a little more bouyant today. More positive and hopeful.
Truth is, when youve suffered depression in the past, the great, gaping black hole is the last place you want to go again. So many things - good and bad - have happened in these past few weeks, I've been aware of a sinking feeling. It's kind of scary, but I'm grateful that I know myself well enough to take action and not let things get out of hand. So, tomorrow, I've booked myself in for an MOT and a chat with my lovely GP.. maybe my medications need adjuting, who knows?
Another positive, I'm actually (more or less) keeping up with the Soul Survivor Bible in a Year!! I noticed something today...
Just how easily we can be fooled by the world's perception of things. I've seen the stage show of Joseph and his Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat a number of times, and loved it, and I realised that perhaps I've made Lord Lloyd Webber's version my default, instead of going back to the real and true source of the story.
The stage show is quite glamourous, full of life and colour; the reality was altogether different, showing sufferings over a lengthy time period, and not fully understanding how good could come from situations, but a steadfastness and a faith that wasn't shaken.
I'm praying for a little bit of Joseph's faith and patience today. Good, huh?
