helpless state

uh o...i just woke up...
slept 10 hours? or 9? well who knows with losing an hour...
power failure so my alarm clock didn't sound...
and i the other alarm clock i didn't change the time...
so i guess it's meant to be that i didn't wake up till now
finally allowed to sleep
i thought yesterday, God, it's up to you if i can get sleep, if you want me to wake up, i will.
i guess He wanted me to sleep.

and before sleeping this is what i read

'you should get into the habit of looking for the silver lining of storm clouds. and once you have found it, continue to focus on it rather than the dark gray of the center. do not yield to discouragement no matter how severely stressed or surrounded by problems you may be. a discouraged soul is in a helpless state being neither able to 'stand against the devil's schemes,' (eph 7:11) himself nor able to prevail in prayer for others. flee every symptom of the deadly foe of discouragement as you would run from a snake. never be slow to turn your back on it, unless you desire to eat the dust of bitter defeat.'

how true that was at that moment as it is now.
but i vow not to be discouraged so i can focus on what is important.
