Today I found a LIST that I wrote of some PERSONAL ISSUES I was struggling with 2 weeks ago amongst my piles of papers at work! It made me remember how hurt I was as I was writing them down yet I learnt a lesson from that experience.
As I was sitting on my desk at work my heart and mind were pretty much occupied with these Personal Issues of mine, relating to Family, Work and Life in general and a PROMPTING came to mind and I acted on it and it helped so I thought to share it with my readers because it helped me made a difference to my day hoping it'll make difference to your day if you are having one of 'those days' too - I mean who doesn't right?

STEP 1: WRITE DOWN WHAT HAS BEEN BOTHERING YOU
So as I was saying earlier, a prompting came to mind to write down what has been weighing me down. Write it down so you can physically see it. Sometime we cramp everything in our head that it becomes too much and we stress over them equally when the issues are very different. Here are some examples. Upon writing it all down I was able to identify the following:
STEP 2: TAKE IT TO THE LORD
After identifying my issues and how to better deal with it - I knew I still needed some help physically, mentally and spiritually.
In the last couple of months I have been praying and crying to my Heavenly Father not knowing what to do and why is this happening to me etc (I know - Pity Party).. but this time round instead of running to my Heavenly Father like He is some Mechanic so he can fix all my problem overnight.. I knelt down and offer a word of prayer and address my issues One by One!! It made a difference to the way I prayed! I talked to him about all of them one by one and offer up the desires of my heart.. and I felt PEACE! A scripture came to mind, Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
STEP 3: TAKE ACTIONS
Now you do your part! On the 1st Step you identify your problem and than took it to the Lord on Step 2 now it's your turn to do your part! For me after Step 1 I was able to somehow take control of my emotions and end what needed to end and start what needed to started and get over what needed to get over and pack up my Pity Party and starting fresh and work on what needs working and so forth! YES I still do have my monents and all but I now take better control of my emotions and work on what needs working.

TO-DATE 2 weeks later I can say that I am truly grateful for the trials I go through everyday because I know I always come out better and stronger! If you are having 'One of Those Days' I hope you you'll find these 3 Steps helpful.
I am truly grateful for a loving patient Heavenly Father who loves me for me regardless of my shortfall. I am grateful for the Gift of They Holy Ghost and the most important part that it plays in my life! Most of the pivotal moments of my life were from following the prompting of the Holy Ghost.
I'm truly grateful for my wonderful Husband who is amazing beyond words! I don't know what I've done to deserve him but he is mine now and I'm eternally grateful!
Much love,

Sometime we cramp everything in our head that it becomes too much and we stress over them equally when the issues are very different. Here are some examples. Upon writing it all down I was able to identify the following:
- Some issues are just too silly and worth laughing at and move on.
- Some issues I just need to built a bridge and get over it!
- Some issues are a long term that needs work in progress, and from that I was able to think of ways to progress the matter and accept that fact that it is what it is and that it will get better eventually NOT overnight!
- Some issues were out of my control so there is no use crying 24/7!
- Some issues were because I was too unrealistic! So I had to readjust my thinking and become more realistic and appreciate it!
- And some issues happened because I am a human and I am alive and I go through them as part of my Journey here on Earth, after all we're here to be tried and tested right?
