When You Feel Sad....

When you feel kinda down, it's important to try not to lose sight of the bigger picture in your life.  Circumstances are fluid and they change rapidly and sometimes not in the direction that you'd have them go.  Still, we have to find within ourselves the power to accept that which we cannot change--but to take ACTION to change those things which we DO have control over.

It seems that emotional turbulences such as sadness, guilt and a sense of loss are crippling and it's hard to find the strength to lift these lower energies upward toward change.  Remembering that we are the artists of our own creation in life is step number one to moving this energy.

Denial of these emotions don't work-and they only grow stronger with the act of suppression keeping them down.  Instead, we must learn to acknowledge what our emotions are reflecting to us and then to let that go.  Let it flow freely through and around you until the energy begins to dissipate.  Then, take hold of everything that is in your life that you ARE grateful and happy about.  Begin to sing praises about these things to
God as you pray for your current circumstance to be resolved.

Not only does this action lift you from the lowliness of negative emotions, it also aligns you with the energies of receiving blessings and manifesting things in your life that you truly want.  The first step to receiving more is to be ever thankful for what has already been given to us by God-and to praise Him for taking care of us as we pray in faith that He will be the strength within us that lifts us to higher ground and protects us and keeps us.
