: Happiness

When you don’t have much in life, even little brings you joy. When you have much in life, you constantly want more.

If life was this simple, being happy would be much easier. But it’s normal to get caught up in the pressures of life; getting a good education, a successful job, stable finances, a…

Really thankful, for the short but open conversation. Thank you..

Peds lecture exam tomorrow. Ah. Gotta get things together. Let’s goo.

I wish to be more mature, wise and understanding. To be able to be resilient… Be able to swallow sorrow or pain, to be able to recognize there’s another side to the story, to be able to be okay not always being heard or noticed or understood, to see myself before my Lord and realize my place of being a wretched sinner and I have nothing to say before God who deals with me, sees me for who I am, continues to love me and never gives up on me even though I will never ever realize, notice or fully understand how much it took for Jesus to take on my sin. I won’t ever fully know, but God does not cease to show His grace and love. Who am I to say otherwise? To stay hardened in my ways and to feel I got shortchanged? Nonsense. Before God, I am utterly humbled.

I’m really broken…
But, God gives me hope. How is it possible, that God loves me, loves me so much to send His only son to die on the cross for my sins? But I am so undeserving, and I am so unworthy of such grace. Is there hope in distress, brokenness and sin? Can death overcome these? If I die would that be enough? No. I’m so weak. How could this be that God would love me? I am such a sinner, completely broken and lost. But God He comforts me. He reigned victorious over sin and death itself.
Wow… Don’t give up this fight because the victory is won. Jesus He said, “it is finished.”
I just want to be with God forever.

this is how i feel: I realize, going through penn is the most challenging road i have ever taken in my life thus far… just an on-going struggle.. wishing i would have it easy, not feel like im frantically running on the treadmill gasping for breath, fearing im going to fall off any second kind of experience.. the thought of why can´t I just leisurely go on the elliptical? ah struggles of penn, nursing, deadlines, my own anxieties, insecurities and everything in between.

Joy, joy

Reminded to find joy of Christ in all that I do and commit to! With joy, there is no need to recognition or sense of burden, because it comes from genuine desire. “The bride (church) belongs to the bridegroom (Christ). The friend who attends the bridegroom waits and listens for him, and is fully of joy when he hears the bridegroom’s voice. That joy is mine, and it is now complete.” John 3:29
