God “remarkably and wonderfully made” us. “Your works are wondrous, and I know this very well.” These clips from Psalm 139:14 are beautifully written and I ponder on it to remind myself that I am meaningful and precious at the same time as being forgetful, brash, or prideful.

These are all very real and valid reasons to feel down, and I encourage you to take a minute and really feel your emotions before doing something to get out of the funk. Sadness can bring clarity to difficult life circumstances and alter our perspective on situations we are wrestling with.
