When You Just Feel Crappy, 50@50, Lesson 11

Life Lesson 11

Perspective, I need perspective. 

Some days you wake up and you are not sick, but you just feel crappy. It’s those days when you can’t find your keys, your wallet, you cut yourself shaving, your clothes are too tight, you feel like you have been drunk for a week and someone hid everything from you. You don’t need some medicine to take because that will not make you better. You do not need someone telling you how forgetful you are because you already know that. You know you have Jesus and that’s good but at the moment doesn’t change things. You are ill (bad attitude, not sick) for no reason and now you have made everyone ill (bad attitude, not sickness) around you.

Nice start to the day isn’t it. I know I might be the only person that ever has those days but this will help you understand those around you who do. What it takes to help on those days is PERSPECTIVE. This now will turn into a “Jesus Juke” of sorts.
