It plays funny games with us. It can think right or it can think wrong. It can have your body in a funk, or it can have your body thrilled. So weird, huh? I’ve concluded that we have full authority with what it gets stuck on. In other words, it’s a mental discipline to camp out in despair, or like driving a car, you push the accelerator and move on. It doesn’t just go away or come naturally. Everybody is different:
- Some are happy go-lucky kinds of people who are consistently fine with just about everyday.
- Others struggle with ups and downs who have to work hard at keeping the right mindset.
- Another group must have medical help to master the chemical makeup of their genetics.
Whatever we are, we need help from God himself. For me, I fit the #2 description. Kim fits the #1 description. We all need each other to make it in this life, thus, the joy of a church where you can come like you are. If you find yourself in a funk, get busy, get involved at church, and meet somebody else’s need. It’s worked for me.
