Yep. That's what around 20 credit hours will do to you (17 plus research)...
In fact, as of this very moment I should be finishing my Clinical paper, editing my Experimental paper, writing a Clinical assignment, studying for an Experimental and Physiological test (this week!), writing a poem, writing two article summaries, and writing the results seciton of research I will be presenting in about a week and a half. Um... yeah. That's why I'm blogging instead. baha.
It's moments like this when the love of God, His Sovereignty, and Spirit-given Energy and Strength all give me immense hope. I could feel overwhelmed (which I do at times) or apathetic (which I am right now) or anxious. But instead, I should just be relying on the Lord and following Him, rowing like crazy, while HE steers the boat. (and gives me the strength to row! haha... love how it's all HIM and His goodness/power/love/joy/peace...etc.).
I've worked hard all semester and am now ready to stop, or at least lighten the load a bit. But instead, the burden seems haeavier and more intense, even though there's only 5 weeks of school left. And, I have strong feelings of apathy and restlessness. I need to pray for focus, strength, wisdom, discernment, and energy to finish strong! "Come to me, all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest" "they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not grow faint." "Do not grow weary of doing good." "Pray continually." "Rejoice Always."
Wonderful promises and commands to which I must cling!
It's also crazy times like this when little pleasures are great. Some current favs include:
1. afternoon walks
2. gilmore girls episodes
3. phone conversations
4. going to the store by myself
5. random roommate moments
Here's to the rest of the semester!
Cheers
