Has Something Like This Ever Happened to You?

Hello Fellow Steemians,

I haven’t been posting on Steemit in over a month. I missed you guys! Did you miss me?

Sure, I’ve still been monitoring what’s going on on Steemit, but my life has undergone some changes. The Lord has had me going in a different direction. I now realize I’ve been fighting Him on it. I was working somewhere, and experienced what I felt was an unfair moves against me, so I began to move on. (Has something like this ever happened to you?)

But God knew better. He knows what’s best for us. Now, I’m getting new perspectives, meeting new people...and making more money!

At one point, I was stewing about the situation, while walking to my car and eating an apple. All of a sudden, I bit the heck out of my tongue, to the point where it was bleeding, and I was spitting blood! At that instant, I felt the Lord speaking to me through the Holy Spirit, “Shut up! Stop thinking and talking about it!”

Now I see where He was, and is, trying to bless me! To be honest, I still have had my “episodes” of thinking and/or talking about it, but I feel I’m a lot better, and I’m thinking and talking about it less and less.

I’m really starting to see how the Lord is pointing me in the direction He wants me to go, and I’m moving on. More about this later.
