Life hasn't been easy for me lately but I've been finding relief in the Lord. God is teaching me that I don't need to be perfect. That my imperfections are what make me unique and human. Lately I have been fighting depression and now, at this moment, I feel relief. I feel relief in knowing that I don't have to have it all figured out. I find relief in Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior, who conquered the grave so that I can be here, living. I don't need to find relief in other things like boys or alcohol, all I need is the Great I Am. He who does all things and loves all people. These past weeks have been stressful to say the least but through that stress I have grown in friendship with those around me and I have worked to be in right relationship with God. I have peace, now, knowing that God's got it. I don't have to worry about all the little details of my life anymore because Jesus is here, holding my hand and telling me it's going to be alright. Yes, I have missed out on some things this year because of school commitments but I know God has a purpose for that. He has allowed me to miss out on sinful things, which I am not sad about. My business has been a relief as well, simply because it has distracted me with graduation and career commitments and rather allowed me to focus on God through this messiness. No, it is never an easy thing focusing on God when you are down but when I do He speaks such truth into my life. My love for the LORD has grown this year and will continue to grow for the rest of my life. Now, isn't that just the coolest thing ever.
On a sidenote I've been listening to Lauren Daigle on repeat -- I suggest you do the same.
