Do you ever have a long to-do list and you just want to make a double of yourself so that you can accomplish it all? I have been there. I try to be a lot and do a lot for a lot of people. Though I am grateful for the things to do on my list; I must remember to lean into God for help. Lean into His strength for the day, instead of my own. To take not just one day at a time, but one moment at a time. Doing my best and trusting God with the rest. Also, that it is okay to sometimes simply rest. Sometimes having a moment of nothing, is something. It is needed just as much as the things on our list. Friend, if your feeling overwhelmed today, just breathe. Talk to God and let Him be your strength for the day and all your moments in-between. Don’t forget to rest too. For lists will always be there, but so will God. Just breathe my friend, He’s got us.
