adrenal glands. i think mine need help. i have been feeling so dehydrated even though i drink so much water, so i did a quick google search. that’s how i came to the conclusion that i’m over-working my adrenal glands, and it’s all according to this article: http://agriculturesociety.com/alternative-medicine-and-treatment/why-water-alone-doesnt-hydrate-the-body-dehydration-minerals-adrenal-exhaustion/

i must be more careful with my body. and having huge protein breakfasts has its perks. i don’t have to worry about packing lunch. =P

i’ve been thinking about something. sometimes, i want to record myself, or have a written record of all my thoughts. i get into these modes in which i speak as if i am releasing a butterfly from my mouth. it is so fleeting, so fragile. i am almost not conscious of it. i feel like…i am not in control. i feel like…He is speaking through me. i think this is my tool, my talent, my purpose. like i’m His megaphone. it’s such a cool feeling because i’m so unaware of it until after He speaks through me. i see it on people’s faces or hear or read about it elsewhere. husby and i were talking about it today. the parable about the master who entrusted his talents to his servants. talents were sums of money then, but i think it is completely relevant, that it applies to what talent means in today’s world. i mean, it is so awesome what His Word can do. i remember the first time that something like this happened, i was in high school. i had written something, kind of emo, just something that came to my mind and escaped through my fingertips. it was something like, “how can you know love if you’ve never been broken-hearted?” and it had passed through me like silk. a few days later, i was reading a friend’s blog, and she had written that quote, but i had forgotten where it came from, so i asked her. it sounded familiar, i said, but i can’t think of where it came from, can you tell me? she said she got it from me. which made me -___-” but now i realize…this is my talent. like the time that i was speaking with my future employer. he asked me to elaborate on why i felt that i should have that job. so i did. and words just poured through me like water from a faucet. and after i had done, i looked at his face. his face was overwhelmingly bright, and his breath seemed to have been taken away by those words. i was surprised, as i often am when i get into those modes. he then commented that the way i had articulated what i said was so beautiful, and, well, i cannot remember what i said. i posted yesterday about the former teacher and her daughter. i honestly cannot remember what i wrote to her. i just know that it made a positive impact on her. i may not remember the words, the syntax, the diction, but i remember how i felt and how the words made others feel. and now i really feel that that is my talent. and that is so encouraging, that He gave me this talent. He uses me for good. He is my mountain, and i His mustard seed. so humbling that He allows me to move Him when He moves me so easily. E>
