This week has been filled with oopsy moments. Have you ever had a week like that? In an effort to be super organized I ordered my Christmas Cards early. I realized after submitting my order that I accidentally included a picture with one of my sons eyes closed. Oopsy!! I bought a kitchen table to refurbish. I went to the store this week to buy paint. I got home and realized I bought milk paint instead of chalk paint. Oopsy!! I ordered beautiful new curtains this week for my living room. I was so excited to get them home. As my mother and I were hanging them I could see I ordered them too short. Oopsy!! I missed doctors appointments for my twins that I had scheduled a long time ago. Oopsy!! I was in the middle of making the kids Christmas Wish List for my mother- in- law when my computer crashed. Oopsy!! My week was filled with oopsy moments. So what does one do with a week full of oopsy moments?
You overcome it with a determined mindset. Despite my many oopsies, I am determined to conquer this week. Sometimes you have to move the dial in your mind to determined and move forward. A lot of life is mind over matter. You have to be determined to win the race. It is an intentional way of thinking about life. When you get off track, turn the knob back to determined, and forge ahead. You can learn to think differently. I am going to finish the week strong. You too can finish strong.
I love how God works. While I am writing this post guess what song I hear on the radio? Yep, you guessed it; Overcomer by Mandisa. I leave you with these words of encouragement as you finish strong this week.
You’re an overcomer. Stay in the fight till the final round. You’re not going under. Because God is holding you right now. You might be down for the moment, feel like its hopeless that’s when He reminds you, that you’re an overcomer.
Don’t quit. Don’t give in. You’re an overcomer!!
