Sweet December

I absolutely cannot believe that we're already in December! Christmas music is on the radio, nights are getting chillier, and GRAD APPS are due soon! I know I shouldn't be stressing about them... but I just can't help it! Dear God, please give me peace this Christmas season! I don't want to be all grinchy this season.

God has been good. Quiet, but good. I've been so blessed with incredible new friends these past few months. He has revealed to me more than ever that we are all put on this earth for a reason. We should never let an opportunity to bless others slip by!

With all the madness of final exams, papers, quitting my job, new romance (yes, you read that correctly...), I've been completely overwhelmed. My brain is on constant overload, and the effects have not been pretty. Sometimes I forget that this life isn't all about me -- and that everything good in my life is not due to my own efforts. Just need to take  a (BIG) step backwards and give all my burdens to HIM.

Oh, the beauty of letting go. Not easy, but definitely necessary.

Dear Jesus, this Christmas season... please take my burdens. Give me rest.
