stress

I spent a lot of my time in high school and college (though to be honest I don't really remember high school... I feel like I wasn't the same person back then) worrying about the next thing; the next task to take care of.

Do you know what I'm talking about? That nagging pressure somewhere between your heart and your stomach that feels like you've forgotten something. It's like your own personal Remembrall.

Especially being busy with things to do at church or at school or at work, I'm pretty sure I've taken 10 years off my life because of stress. Organization definitely helps, but I think it helps just to focus on the day at hand, the moment at hand, to live in the present and know the rest is provided for and planned out by God.

"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."
- Matthew 6:33-34

He's got the whole world in His hands.
