Happy Friday!
When I say this has been a week, please take my words at full face value. It has indeed been a week. How are you doing? How did everything go for you yesterday? I truly hope that you’re doing well mentally, given how much is going on. I know it’s having a direct impact on many people’s mental health. Many people are suffering mentally and aren’t even aware of it; they’re just going with the flow.
I’m usually extremely excited to see the weekend. I need to find another word besides "excited." My migraines are back, and my allergies are acting up. I guess the weather is doing what it does, and I’m just tired. I’m the kind of tired where I really need to take 72 hours and unplug, somewhere on an island with water. I need to decompress, but the way my schedule is set up, none of that is feasible right now. So, let’s keep this thing rolling.
Last night, I kept hearing the song "He’s Preparing Me" playing in my head. As I reflected on all the things I have going on, and the things others have shared with me, it became clear that He’s definitely preparing us. Sometimes, things are delayed because they need to be properly prepared. I say all that to remind you not to give up on something you’ve been waiting for just because it didn’t arrive by your deadline. Proper preparations have to take place.
Despite the challenges and the exhaustion, I affirm that perseverance and patience are key. We are being prepared for something greater, and the delays we experience are just a part of that preparation. Stay hopeful and continue to push forward, knowing that the best is yet to come.
