It's Just Another Day

It's been one year.
Time always blows my mind.

I heard that, if we have a specific day that comes around each year that has affected us in our lifetime, it usually isn't felt on that day of the year. But the feelings that were felt on that day are felt on other days.

Yesterday I prayed, "Lord, give me freedom from what tomorrow was a year ago." And I woke up today with something new. I guess that's what it's like for me, that everything felt today a year ago isn't felt today, but it will be felt on other days. And even though last week I was anxious about what today would bring, there's no need to fear today, I guess I'm okay, and it's just another day.

I still have so much to learn about forgiveness, and hopefully, over time, God can work.

"Let your past make you better not bitter."

God is still our refuge and strength...therefore we will not fear.

I just want to praise Him for how good He is.
