sometimes you just dont want to go through with life, all the demands. the pressures. the lists of things to do. the people to please...the emotions, the wrong doings, the sin, overwhemlingness, the doubts and questions. the searching for what and where you are supposed to be at and to be doing, the expectations we receive and that we place on others...etc...it eventually catches up to u. catches up to everyone in different ways.

we dont rely enough on God. we are too prideful. we dont make enough time for God. we dont want to go through what we find hard, stressful...we dont want to endure or to perservere in any and every circumstance. we live as if our situations are bigger than God. we have a skewed view of who our God really is and how big He is and how much He actually loves us and what He does for us daily.

We just need to take the time to let Him woo us. to let Him quiet our hearts, to give us a peace that passes all understanding. To give us patience when we just want to more forward in life. to give us endurance in those momennts we just want to go away. to give us relief when we are overwhelmed. and amidst it all, to be our JOY.
Our Everything.

Romans 5:3-5
"Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us."
