Life is exhausting.
Physically
Mentally
Emotionally
It is completely exhausting.
Every time I feel like I am getting somewhere and actually finding purpose for myself, life gets in the way.
So, what do we do when life gets us down? Do we hang our heads in defeat and just walk away from the difficulty? Or do we push forward, knowing that with the strength and power of God we can conquer anything?
Lately, I have just been so consumed with life. With my classes, my work, my friendships, with everything but what I should actually be consumed with. I have lost focus on my goals, my passions, and my purpose. Life has just gotten in the way. And it’s wearing me down faster than ever before. I feel like I am trudging upstream in a river that’s current is so strong I could be pulled under at any second. I’m digging my feet into the bottom of the riverbed. Standing firm in the rocks and dirt, holding tight to the only thing keeping me alive. But, off in the distance I am starting to see help on the way. The one on the life boat, coming to rescue me, to save me from everything that is going on around me. I’m given strength by His presence. And I know that as long as I keep pushing forward towards that life boat, towards the One who is going to save me, I know I can make it through this.
