I haven't been able to write in a very long time. Correction, I haven't prioritized writing in a long time. God made the heavens, he made happiness and joy, he made sunrises and sunsets...and the Devil created these two weeks in between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I truly believe these weeks are cursed. Things go wrong for people who deserve them to be right, stress is consuming us all, and I personally can't help but feel lost, especially in these brutal two weeks.
We all know that the key to much stress relief is prioritization. I have slowly come to realize that if I don't start my day correctly, the rest of the day will follow as such. Yet, this final projects and exams filled holiday season can shadow what our priorities are. And I know when my priorities aren't aligned, nothing else in my life is. I turn to people instead of turning to Him, I make mistakes that I know I shouldn't, and things here seem to drag on.
So, take a breath and rest. Take the time that you've been reading this to reflect on what it means to be STILL. Know that He is God and will be the driver of not only the next two weeks, but of the rest of your weeks if you give him the wheel. You are capable of making it through with a little bit of faith, and a whole lot of coffee. If you have both, you are more than capable. You are exceptional.
Good luck, friends!
