Maybe this sounds odd but have you ever been in the middle of something unpleasant? Maybe a task that needs to be done, a painful medical procedure,being in a car when you have to go to the bathroom or something like this? Now stay with me. In this situation have you ever had a thought like" hang in there your almost done" or better yet something like Your doing good ( your name) keep it up ? Oh please tell me that I am not psychotic. This has happened to you hasn't it ? It has me so many times that I can not count. Most of the time I have thought of it as giving myself a pep talk but this afternoon it felt different. I found myself lost in thought, actually lost in worry. As much as I hate to admit it, I got my dad's worry gene. Nothing particular was going wrong but there has been so much stress in my life lately it seems to have worn my optimistic attitude down a bit. I felt the feeling was coming over me and said a prayer. At this point I should have busied myself but instead I found myself just setting there thinking. As I thought , the worries that I had cast aside in prayer came crawling back. Then out of nowhere I heard myself say" It will all work out Diane" hearing my own voice in the silence almost startled me. Now if I was giving myself a pep talk I wouldn't be startled would I ? I don't think so. I was totally surprised by this. It had to come from God, I can just feel it. Even if I am psychotic, knowing that God told me that it will all work out is a great feeling of relief
