Why is it that sometimes one can have a really great day, be inspired, feel fresh and on top of the world, go to sleep and then wake up the next day feeling totally the opposite - uninspired, angry at the world, unmotivated, tired, fed up and miserable.
Well that was me yesterday, and there's no real reason for it apart from maybe a little bit of a late night. For artistic, creative people, I think this is quite a normal thing. I don't like it though. I'm generally very 'feely' and emotional and I think that is what enables creativity a lot of the time, but sometimes it just annoys me and I really want be in control of these feelings.
I think it's important to 'fix your eyes upon Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith' first thing in the morning before you do anything. I do remember doing that a couple of days ago, and it must have helped as I was inspired that day, but today I woke up and the first thing I was worrying and stressing about was what my plans were for the weekend and how I was going to get from one pub to the other without needing a taxi (lol). So Jesus brings peace, by his Holy Spirit, we know this because of John 17:33 - "I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have peace; in this world you will have trouble. But take heart, I have overcome the world.". So it's a good place to begin the day.
