NOW I get it!
I mean when I first opened that last night it just soothed me and I couldn't place my finger on just why it was standing out so strong.
As I was laying in bed last night, I remembered that this was one of the verses the Lord pointed me to at the beginning of a trial in life a about a year and half ago. Now as the situation is FINALLY wrapping up, it hasn't been good for me and discouragement has tried to creep in...…..

WOW! Thank you for sharing, and as I read that He brought to my mind Isaiah c28-
9 Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
11 For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.
12 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing

Craving SUGAR LIKE CRAZY these past few days!!!! Been doing okay w/o the carbs and breads, but SUGAR is calling me!!! Not the pepsi stuff though, that I'm doing good to say NO to...... but we run into the grocery store and there's cookies and junk right there greeting me.
Could be from stress, could be hormonal or a little of both. Leaning more towards stress right now as there is affliction to us. It's been a long year / year&half with a situation and while I am happy it is FINALLY almost over, I am not happy with the end results and in the past few days since being given these results, as I look back and reflect, that has been when the sugar cravings have REALLY started in again. Even last week during our vacation when it's a little harder to eat healthier I didn't have the cravings.......
STRESS!!! I definitely think it's due to stress.
So, looking for what scripture I can apply here.

It's past my bed time and I am tired, so why am I still up? Because right now I am 
and maybe I'm misinterpreting Ephesians 4:26 where it says not to let the sun go down on your anger........
but from past experience I know that if I try to sleep while angry well, my dreams (if there are any) just reflect that and my sleep is not sound and restful. I don't know what's worse..... to try and sleep while angry and not be able to get rest OR to stay up angry while I SHOULD BE sleeping and still not get any rest? Either way I thinks it's a lose:lose situation.......
I guess it does no good to stay up fuming over something I have no control over. What's done is done. Romans 8:28.....
Okay, getting a little better now... going to try and get some sleep..... A detailed dream with some direction would be nice tonight
