Coming to our senses when we have been so self absorbed is a great beginning. When I’ve been in a tailspin with negativity or feeling victimized, sooner or later, I wake up, sick of myself. I realize that I’m my own worst enemy. No one talks to me like I’ve been talking g to myself. When I start telling God all about my blind stupor, I know He hears me. Many of the Psalms talk about being surrounded by the enemy, feeling defeated without a fight. Somehow, by being honest with Him, He re- energizes my motivation to keep going, continuing to talk it out with Him, instead of hiding behind my own self built walls.
