Moments

Ever have a moment where you feel like you have no more energy but got sleep last night? This basically sums up this week. I have been wearing myself out with LOTS and LOTS of projects that are due by Friday or Monday and have this glazed over look by 3:30. Seriously, life is super stressful right now and finals are next week. One professor had the audacity to assign a project due the day of the final-how nice is that?

I know it will get better and I know the stress will disappear soon, but seriously, I am tired and will be tired till finals are over. My "moments" list is more and more daily and life seems to be going by as slow as molasses right now. I know it will get better...but still.

Some verses that are getting me through:
** Proverbs 3:5-6 states "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight."

** Proverbs 18:10 states "The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe."

** Isaiah 40:29-31 states "He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
****************************************************
Life is difficult right now and the light at the end of the tunnel may seem distant, but life must go on and it will. Please keep me in your prayers during this week and next as finals are approaching and I need the STRENGTH to get through them! Thanks in advance.

Have a wonderful evening!!!!

Finals sounds like an Iron Man competition. How much crude can they make you go through before you finally just fall? I don't envy you.
I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Also I'm sorry I made you blubber in the library. For the second time.

Don't forget Philippians 4:13 - I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.
My very favorite one.

In my prayers as always,
Loving you,
Nonni

Continue to cling to Him, and you will get through it.

Here's another good verse:

"Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous fall." Psalm 55:22

This time in the semester must seem overwhelming, but I have confidence that you will get through it all just fine! :o)

I'll be praying for you...our son (Billy) has finals beginning December 9, ending December 17. Pray for him, too!

Blessings...
