Excited?

You know when you're really looking forward to going somewhere or doing something, you just can't wait, then the day finally arrives and you're tired, worn down, because well, life got in the way.

You've been so excited and then suddenly you're just exhausted and you're really not sure if you want to go.

Too often I fall into this scheme, I try to tell myself that I'll be excited once I get there and normally I am but sometimes I psych myself out so bad that it's hard to enjoy myself.

Where does this feeling come from?

Too often I think it comes from the enemy, from the devil, and we don't even realize it. Instead of enjoying the opportunity God's given us, instead of turning to Him for strength so we can enjoy it we complain, we dread it, we want someone else to pull us out of our funk. We get stressed out instead of just saying "okay let's go and let's enjoy ourselves". It's a dangerous tactic that Satan uses all too often in my life friends, make sure that your not giving him an opportunity to use it in yours.
