Insane in the Mundane!

Okay, so I'm skipping to #10 because I have felt insane in the past week. At least I have felt alone, distanced from friends, and bored.  So, before you think I have it all together, there you go.  Writing for me is therapy, I guess.  I write, so that I have goals of the way it should be in a perfect world.  But, life is not perfect.  

So, I'm skipping to #10 in Staying Sane in the Mundane:  
#10.  You are loved!!!  RELAX, REMEMBER THAT NO ONE IS PERFECT.  GOD LOVES US JUST THE WAY WE ARE, AND OFFERS FORGIVENESS, FREEDOM, AND GRACE.  

This week, I had to lower my expectations and focus on one day at a time.  I called friends and family to connect.  I also found strength in God's never-ending love for me.  

Ephesians 1:3-8a says,

"3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the 

heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. 4 For he chose us in him before the 

creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love 5 he[b] predestined us for 

adoption to sonship[c] through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— 6 to 

the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. 7 In him 

we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the 

riches of God’s grace 8 that he lavished on us.  "(NIV)

We are his children, when we trust Jesus for salvation.  We are loved and forgiven.  Even when our world is upside-down, we can rest in that.  God never changes and is our only hope.
