Confidence and A Good Day

Today was filled with reasons to be confident.
I trained at CPSA, something I do quarterly.  This is in itself should build confidence because it is a pretty cool thing.  I received many compliments from my co-workers attending the training and for the first time since beginning this training a year and a half ago my co-trainer and I received all positive evals.
We had worked super hard to make the training the best that it could be, and had just completely revamped it.  I am completely thrilled.
After training I rushed back to the office so I could catch the end of Dinosaur School, my children’s group.  The kids were so excited to see me.  (I had put subs in place due to the training).  As if that was not confidence boosting enough, a co-worker shared how one of the kids in the group is using the skills we’ve taught him to calm down at home.
Today was such a fulfilling day that I forgot to remind myself of my completeness in Christ.  It was not until I was sitting in my car absolutely exhausted from my long day that it hit me.  Out of nowhere, into my head I heard the phrase, “I am complete in Christ.”
I had almost forgot, a feeling of piece rushed over me.  I said a quick thank you and hurried home ot complete the rest of my busy day.
There were points today that pulled me down, like stumbling over unfamiliar slides at the training and the embarrassment of finding out my bra was visible through my shirt when looking a certain way.  Somehow today those things didn’t hit me quite so hard.  How cool, to have a day like that, where life just about seems handleable. 
If only they were all this easy.
