F%@K! and also the peace that passes understanding

Dude yesterday sucked!
Like I wrote a few days ago I feel like things are changing in the way I receive from Jesus. I also wrote that I had been under attack in some areas.
All hell rained down yesterday in the form of a bounced check! I hate! hate! hate! financial issues! I hate that I still fail at that level! I hate feeling helpless and knowing It's my own fault!
It's a good thing I was already suited up in my full body armor or that might have taken me down. It was a big deal from the get go and when I started trying to deal with it the mess got bigger and bigger. This thing pulled me off course and sent me spinning in the direction of 'this changes everything'.
After I cussed and yelled some...I took a step back and got some perspective. I realized all that had really changed were my circumstances. The lessons and the time and the purpose and the peace are still intact. It feels good and kind of weirds me out. I'm not used to that kind of peace. It's outside of effort.
So are the forgiveness and understanding and humbleness I feel today.
