Carrying the Weight of the World

Sometimes life seems to become too chaotic, too forceful, too heavy for us to carry each day. For some, it's an endless to do list; for others, it's the outside pressures. Whatever the case may be, we all find ourselves in a position where all we wish to do is crawl away in a hole to escape the overwhelming clog the surrounding world has forced upon us.

Recently, I've found myself suffocated by the endless tasks of what life brings. The anxious feeling of running out of time and not able to

contain all of the tasks that seem to be floating away from your fingertips.

We experience this anxiety in the present, but sometimes the anxiety of the future just stacks on top, adding to our already endless existing to do list.

The fear of the unknown of what's to come can be an overwhelming process since we run into the future blindly with nothing but the guidance we carry within ourselves. With graduation so

closely approaching just shy of 8 months, the pressures of having a specific plan set for my future has been a constant in the back of my mind. We all h

ave an idea of where we wish to end up, but the steps on how to get there can seem lofty and unstable.

For now, I rest in the security that God has not only a plan for me, but that He will make straight my paths.

But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him.” – 1 Corinthians 2:9

We are not alone surrounded in this stress of life.

You are not alone,
