Dont lie to yourself

OMG its so terribly cold these days especially the mornings. Its as if its winter already and its  not even May yet. Winter should really pace itself and try not to overwork these next few months cause our electricity supply is not even stable and people have died from the cold so go easy that's all im saying....lol!! Did I ever mention how much I hate winter? Well now you know.

So the other morning I was just about to get out of my warm bed after my morning prayer and devotional when my husband calls me back to bed. Remember I still haven't exercised or put in the lunches or breakfast, so I pause for a moment and think to myself-5 minutes wouldn't hurt. 5 minutes became 10 and 10 minutes became 20 minutes and then I found myself getting out of that bed half an hour later only!!!! I was so mad. So I got up and started reciting all the things I haven't done yet angrily and started shouting at my husband to which he replied :

" you knew you had things to do-why are you blaming me? You're an adult."

I stood still.  Caught completely by surprise. Waiting for him to apologise profusely for making me come back to bed. But he didn't. He repeated what he said. And I was like-OMG-WTF-did he just say that? I altered my entire morning routine because he asked me to and then he turns around and tells me I'm an adult? If I was angry at first I was certainly fuming now. But I just didn't have the time to fight so I just shut it and went to the shower.

While I was there I just unpacked this entire situation.

He was right. As an adult I knew my responsibilities in the morning and I should not have let him tempt me back into the warm bed. He had nothing to do or worry about in the morning so him just laying there had no bearing on my time. His responsibilities and mine are completely different. And I thought to myself Gosh-how many times have I let this happen before? How many times have I let my own responsibilities or duties slip then turned around and blamed the devil for tempting me when I could have said : "NOOOOOOO DEVIL-I WILL NOT COME TO BED" Avoiding so many problems with a simple NO? We are so quick to blame others when we are adults and should have known better than to do the things we did. What I've learnt is that in this life no one else will bear the consequences of your decisions so think carefully each time and make the right one. Don't let the devil tempt you.
