Taking Back My Life

Overwhelmed. Anxious. Insecure. Unstable. 

These are the words I have most commonly used to describe how I’ve been feeling the past couple weeks. My season at CGA is very quickly winding down, there’s a lot of projects and work to be finished, and I have a lot of details about my future that need to come together. 

I’ve been very overwhelmed with everything going on around me, and in general, I’ve felt very powerless to do anything about the craziness. 

So I do what I do best.

I hid my head in the sand and tried to pretend like nothing was going on. Yet still feeling the pressure to need to make decisions and move forward, I refused to do anything about it, and only further perpetuated feeling overwhelmed. 

[Change and transition are not the easiest things for me.]

Today, however, I declare that I am taking back control over my life

“For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of
power and love and self-control.” 2 Timothy 1:7 (ESV)

I will walk in boldness. I will go after what I desire. I will be doing some figurative butt-kicking. And most importantly, I will trust that God is going to take care of me along the way. 

This next week is going to be a great week! Get excited. I’ll let you know how it goes in my next blog.
