Frustration

LIfe is temporary. The afterlife is eternal.
So, why is it that life can so easily consume us?

I used to push myself so hard. It was survival. I created goals and plans, methods to keep me looking forward and striving for a purpose. In the process, I ran from what my life had become as much as I focused on achieving objectives in my life.

I wanted to be accepted. I wanted to reach my fullest potential. I wanted to believe that I had worth.

In the recent end, I fell apart.

Now, I am still like I have never been before.
The demands of responsibility in providing for, caring for; raising five people have depleted me. Anxiety and depression have made me into a person unlike I was before they entered the scene...irritable, angry; hopeless.

All I want now is peace where it seems there is none to be had.

God, save me from myself.

Wow,I just saw this.

This reminds me of me.

I recently had a turn around out of the same wilderness. I wonder also why this temporal life consumes us so.

you are so close to the deliverance, to overcoming the world. Hang on tight to Jesus words " come to me all you who are weary and burdened and i will give you rest." and "God is near to the brokenhearted, his ears attentive to thier prayers." God bless you in His full measure of peace.
