Overwhelmed

There is a very long list of things that need to be done, in what feel like a little tiny bit of time. I had an anxiety attack/emotional break down today because it all caught up to me and with my hubby leaving, I lost my calming constant. I keep thinking of these lyrics, and I need to remember them when my thought of stress, work, weddings, u-hauls, and the soon to come camp outs in the unfinished basement pop into my head.
  1. O soul, are you weary and troubled?
    No light in the darkness you see?
    There’s light for a look at the Savior,
    And life more abundant and free!
    • Refrain:
      Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
      Look full in His wonderful face,
      And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
      In the light of His glory and grace.
  2. Through death into life everlasting
    He passed, and we follow Him there;
    O’er us sin no more hath dominion—
    For more than conquerors we are!
  3. His Word shall not fail you—He promised;
    Believe Him, and all will be well:
    Then go to a world that is dying,
    His perfect salvation to tell!
These are moments I've been waiting for, there here, now I need to rise to the challenge. I know the Lord has faith in me and He will help me if I just follow his plan for me...not mine.

I can only imagine how stressful it must be to work, move and renovate a house all at the same time. And then here I come wanting you guys to prepare stuff for the trip. I am afraid that with all the stress you won't really be able to actually get excited.:) I promise to make it as easy as possible, you will just have to get your suitcases packed by yourself! :) Good luck with everything! Keep you head up! You can handle it!
