Tell God about your anger. He can take it.

Today I was going to write a post about being present in this time of waiting. After many starts and stops, I deleted what I had because it didn't feel authentic. Being present with our loved ones during this time is a wonderful message, but I was angry and I needed to tell God why.
So I sat down, and He and I had a conversation.
I told Him that this pandemic makes me angry. I am angry because my son will miss his eighth-grade graduation and because my daughter will miss her Spring dance performance. I am angry every time my toddler sees a playground and I have to tell her it's closed.
I'm not only mad for my family, but I'm also angry for yours. I'm angry for the High school and College Seniors who may not experience graduation. I'm angry for the single moms, who don't get a break from their little ones. I'm distressed and grateful for our doctors and nurses who put themselves in harm's way every day. I am distressed for the people who have lost their jobs and for the families who have lost loved ones to this virus.
Don't get me wrong, I am not angry with God. But I know if I can't come before His throne of grace with my emotions, my feelings will come out sideways and my family or the lady at the grocery store who is going the wrong way may hear about it. Just because I'm a Christian doesn't mean that I have to suck it up and be okay with this fallen world.
We're allowed to have feelings about our predicament, tell God about how you feel. He can take it.
Hi Heather, more great information on bone building. Also I am almost through the 28 day calendar and it has been fantastic! I highly recommend it.
Heather,
This is great info to share ! I recently had my second bone density test and it had improved from the first one. I trust that it due to the strength training classes I attend with you and my diet !
Hi Heather, excellent information on Bone health. Also, I just finished the 31 day challenge and it was fantastic. Looking forward to the 28 challenge starting tomorrow. Thank you for having all this information and for the great workouts!
Hey, thanks for the info Heather. It actually makes a lot of sense. Haven’t thought about that before. Looks like I’ll be adding a little salt and a little maple syrup!
A great all natural deodorant is made by Little Seed Farm. Honestly, it is the only natural deodorant that seems to actually work for me.
Great information Heather, I’ve been there too and just a side note for those gals (like me) who suffer sensitivities to chemicals, my savior was apple cider vinegar to “kill bacteria” after washing and then I used coconut oil rubbed in the pit area. I also added essential oils of lemongrass or geranium for a scent. The ACV was only as needed sometimes takes a few days to kill all bacteria causing smell and then daily with the coconut oil.
Thanks for sharing
