What Black Women Think

Black Women Discussing Our Issues on Our Terms

I was sitting in my living room this morning thinking about all the bad decisions i have made in my life time. Then i thought about why i made the bad decisions in the first place and why at that time i thought it was right. some time i find my self making decisions based solely on my emotions, how i feel at that moment. I dont give myself time to think rationally, i dont give myself time to calm down to meditate and weigh all the options and the out comes of that situatiuon; and, then i thought about my situations in biblical sense, (WWJD?) at them times if i would have meditated on the lord, stayed calm and patient the situation would have worked out in my favor everytime. if i would have kept my mind on the lord and not try to handle the stuation myself He would have fixed it. So many times i pray for these qualities: patience, peace, wisdom, understanding, and when i'm presented with the test to use these things he have given me, i fail. why?...why? i ask the lord. "You have blessed me with these qualities and yet when im being tested i fail." So i found myself thinking back, i recalled the situations and the voice in my head telling me to do the opposite of what i was doing. I recalled that voice that told me to go right and then i went left, bc of my on ego, because i just could not let that person get the last word or the last laugh. but in the end they did bc i suffered the consequenses of my actions from not yeilding to temptation. So the conclusion to this post is, listen to that voice in your head thats telling you to go right! Stay focused on the Lord and he will stay focused on you! I will serve the Lord!!!
