July 16th Daily Reflection

Self pity is a bottomless pit of disppear and depression. How true nad once you realize you are about to go down that pit,turning to the Lord will help your fall, however, sometimes the Lord will use someone in your life to stop the slide. And we need to be constantly villigant when that person arrives so that we don't miss the Lord's blessings. I felt as if I was falling into that pit last week and the Lord sent two people to help pull me out - my spiritual director caught me and stopped my downward spiral and a good friend pulled me out! I could feel the physical change when I was pulled out of the pit. How are allowing the Lord to pull you out of the pit of self pity?
