So, I was in a bit of a “funk” for about 4 days over the weekend. It started Friday morning and lasted all the way until Monday night. I can’t describe it or explain it to you. I remember being at The Worship Gathering Monday night thinking that everyone must have thought that I was crazy (which they already do anyways. I don’t know why it was so important to me this time.)

Anyways, I was on the phone with a friend of mine Monday night, and was just sharing with her this funk. She said three words to me that set me in a whirlwind of transformation. “Just Say ‘No’”. I was dumbfounded. I didn’t know what to say to her. I think I even chuckled at first. But then she told me that as long as I was reinforcing with my words that I was in a funk, there wouldn’t be a change. I was blown away. She was right. It hit me in the chest like a freight train along with a MAC truck going at 75MPH.

Amazingly, I’ve been out of the “funk” ever since then. Isn’t amazing how God brings people into our lives to simply show us His way. I explained to another friend of mine earlier today, sometimes we need those people to mourn with us when we mourn, but other times we need those people to give us a nice swift kick in the tail and challenge us and push us to go on. I thank God for the best friends in the world. They are helping me become more and more one with Christ.
