Release Me

EXHAUSTED. That is how I would describe myself nowadays. Lots of things
are going on and I can't keep up. It feels that I am just going to collapse
anytime. I just want to scream my lungs out and release all of the
pressures within me. I am overwhelmed by a medley of emotions. I just
can't do this alone.

FOCUSED. That is how I should be. I should dwell all the more in God's
presence. It's never wise to put matters into my own hands. For I don't
know what's best for me, only GOD does. I should remind myself that
wherever I am right now is just a phase. Times of refreshing will
come from the Lord. He will give me rest. He will never leave me
nor forsake me therefore I choose to be strong and courageous.

James 1: 2-4
2Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds,
3because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance.
4Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete,
not lacking anything.


Matthew 11:28-30
28Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
29Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart,
and you will find rest for your souls. 30For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.


Deuteronomy 31:6
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them,
for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.


Romans 8:28
28And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him,
who have been called according to his purpose.
