Thanks

Sometimes I have this weird phenomena occur that makes me really want to believe in Sigmund Freud's theories. It has to do with my "unconscious." Basically, Freud believed that most of our experiences -- our feelings, thoughts, ideas, etc. -- are not driven by our conscious thoughts but rather what lies beneath -- our unconscious.

The term "Freudian slip" refers to this phenomena....and it seems it happens to me often. Something inappropriate will slip out of my mouth completely unexpectedly when I meant to say something else. (Freud believed this applied primarily to our sexual impulses.....I hope not.)

Anyway, here's what happened today. I was trying to check my e-mail and went to the address bar to begin typing. As I typed, I started to space out. When I looked up, I had typed the word "thankfulness." ?????? Weird, I know. Not sure how it happened.....I was trying to type in the address for Yahoo.

Honestly, I think what's really going on here has less to do with Freud and more to do with what God's trying to say to me. I have been complaining a LOT recently, about....well....everything. I think God was bringing my attention to the issue, and bringing my focus back to Him.

Isn't it awesome that we have a personal God who is constantly pursuing and romancing us? I love that....and I am completely thankful for it.
