I wrote this last week:

“Lately, I’ve had people tell me or ask me how I’m always so strong in my faith. The truth is, I’m not always. And now is one of those times.

Over the last few weeks, I’ve gradually stopped spending time daily with God. It’s gradually worsened, but it’s also affected my mental health and my mindset relating to school, work, and my body physically.

While reading the Bible plan @bible.and.faith and I are doing to work through the book of Job, the Holy Spirit really convicted me today. This season is showing me that I haven’t been rooting myself or building my foundation of His Word or prayer with our Heavenly Father. This evening, I stressed myself out to the point where I broke at a simple change of schedule. I’ve felt overwhelmed; like I can’t do anything right at work, school or spending enough time with the Lord or at home with Anthony and Oakley. I’ve felt like everything is slipping through the cracks and that I don’t have enough time to do everything each day.

The thing is, this season is happening for a reason. No matter how unpleasant, God has a purpose for this & is growing me. He is showing me what my foundation is currently laid upon vs. what it should be based on.”

I’m not sharing this for sympathy, but to hopefully speak to those who relate & show you that you’re not alone. Nobody has a perfect walk with Christ and that is okay. I falter, so does the next christian and so do you. It’s in our nature. But in our weakness, God is strong. Seek Him.

Last week was rough, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. But we are not alone. God is with us every second and He is good no matter what.

“But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭12:9‬ 🌿
