Q: How are you keeping in life right now?
A: Me?! Well, I’m at juggling everything and squeezing meaningful time with people and fitness in between the crazy load of stuff to be done. 😑
I’m still so glad that the grace of the Lord fuels me to do everything and that I’d like to acknowledge all the following items He has blessed me with for the past months/days/years…
1. Thank You Lord that even though I am a Martha by default, I still have that inner Mary within me. To stop and pause when everything is getting too loud, too crowded, too overwhelming and all other emotions that take the life out of me. .
2. Thank You Lord for the sensitivity to lean on to other people when I need help, to rebuke the offensive, to keep in tune with others emotions and to extend help to them if needed.
3. Thank You Lord for the time with family and friends and to everyone who truly matters. 💖
4. Thank You Lord for the patient endurance to go on when a lot of distractions held me (again) lately. More prayers, more quiet and alone time with You is surely the key to all of these. And before you know it, you’ve bounced back to your best self again! .
5. Lastly, thank You Lord for the new desire of being physically fit (although this season, it was a hard battle of being intentional at it) . With all the leftover time and urgencies, I was still able to make time for it. Truly the flesh is weak but the Spirit is willing.
I still pray for the discipline on how to draw the line where enough is enough already may it be, binge-watching, eating, allowing myself to be used by unrespectful people, to practice discernment on whether I let myself be influenced by people who advise based on their current season in life, even working late. It will definitely be hard but I trust God that as long as I put my faith in Him, everyone’s standards don’t matter.
