No more funk:)

Okay so if you read my blog fairly regularly you know that I get stuck in yucky moods that I like to call funks quite often. It's pretty terrible and I can stay in them for days and it really is frustrating. Well I began my week with a terrible Monday in which supposed friends were rude to me and really hurt my feelings and I couldn't shake me upset feeling and I began to just feel beaten up. Well I shared this with my good friend today and he gave me some insight that changed my view on my funks completley. He told me that my funks are just satan trying to attack me because I'm growing and that the attacks will continue until I show satan that I am strong in my God and that he can't get me down and I am going to have joy in everything. Now maybe I should have realized this earlier but, I'm telling you this realization made my day! It's so cool to think that if I have joy instead of letting my funks get me down then I will no longer have these moods! It's just so awesome! He also shared with me the verse Hebrews 11:6 which says "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that he exists and he rewards those who earnestly seek Him." I know that I'm not being faithful when I'm stuck in my funks, instead I'm turning from God and letting satan win which clearly does not please God. From now on I am going to earnestly seek God which means being joyful no matter what satan throws at me:) If you struggle like I do then I encourage you to do the same thing.
