Please contact us if you have any questions or comments or would just like some encouragement?
When I get bummed out, I find it best to pray, sort out my thoughts and feelings, and have God show me what He wants me to know and learn from the situation or how best to deal with it. Sometimes exercising, talking with a close friend, eating good food, and counting my blessings help. It is not hard to feel bummed out from time to time. Just realize that you are in a short season in life and that this shall pass. Life can be stressful at times, but He will see us through as we trust God. ~ Bill Greguska
Romans 12:12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
Don’t Be Bummed Out, You Have Been Created And Are Loved By God!
What To Do When You Are Bummed Out?
We may snap at people, causing them to be a little ruder and a little less understanding with us. We may notice more adverse events and fewer festive events that happen to us. Here are some ideas that can be genuinely helpful:
1. Talk To A Good Friend- Sometimes, this talking with a good friend in person or on the phone can help you pull out of things by pointing you to Jesus and His teaching.
2. Take a Prayer And Meditation Break- Both prayer and meditation can be great tools for helping people get into a different frame of mind. Even a 5- or 10-minutes of prayer and meditation can give you a needed break from what’s stressing you.
3. Count Your Blessings- Gratitude is another excellent tool because it is hard to focus on how bad things are when focusing on how good things are! List at least ten or more things you’re grateful for. The next thing to do is to focus on 2 or 3 items. Doing this can give you an entirely new outlook and ultimately turn a bad day around!
4. A Little Work Out- Sometimes, this is one of the best things you can do for yourself. Working out can relieve built-up stress and get your entire body and mind in the right frame of mind again.
