Got up on the wrong side of the bed?

THINGS AREN'T WORKING OUT VERY WELL TODAY. I'm having one problem after another - nagging little tings that maybe wouldn't matter so much if I were in a better mood, but today they feel like the end of the world! I don't mean to bark at people or give them a hard time, but I cant seem to help it.


There's a saying, "You cant keep the birds from flying over your head, but you can keep them from building a nest in your hair." Unfortunately, when the first little "grump bird" came flying over my head this morning, I let him land and start building his nest, and now I'm caught in a vicious cycle of grumpiness. But I can break the cycle. As soon as I ask Jesus to help me snap out of it, He'll help me do just that.


There are always going to be bumps, obstacles, and nagging problems that can make my day turn sour - if I let them. Some days, its worse than others. But I don't have to stay miserable just because things started off that way. Its never too late to turn around and start being happy. Why didn't I start right now?
