Fantastic Friday #287 - Night

Night

5 LORD, you alone are my portion and my cup;
you make my lot secure.
6 The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
surely I have a delightful inheritance.
7 I will praise the LORD, who counsels me;
even at night my heart instructs me.
8 I keep my eyes always on the LORD.
With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Psalm 16:5-8

What do you think about at night? Is it the choices you made during the day, the choices you didn't make, the time spent with family, the time spent with friends, the problem you face tomorrow, or is it something else? Do you think God thinks about you at night? I assure you he isn't thinking about what you did wrong during your day but I am pretty sure he is thinking about what He wants you to do. So many times we get caught up in the SWCS during our night reflection. This is the Shoulda Woulda Coulda Syndrome that we all suffer from and sometimes confusion can be a side effect of SWCS. The SWCS can drag us further away from our Lord if we let it consume our Nightly thoughts. Remember, the best antibiotic for Shoulda Woulda Coulda Syndrome is our Lord who counsels us away from negativity.

Have a great weekend.
