Quarantine

This season has been challenging to say the least.From the beginning, I chose to make the best of of it.I'm going to use my time wisely and work on some projects. I'm going to choose joy!be thankful!Be a solid christian!

Well, here is an update.Yes, I am still striving to have this attitude/perspective. BUT, turns out its not what I expected.Turns out those projects... are projects of the heart.Turns out being joyful and thankful..is a hard choice to make.Turns out being a "solid" christian..is a work in progress.

To be honest,some days i just feel sad. Other days are sprinkled with anxiety. That's when I have to call it quits. Physically stop what i'm doing and get some fresh air. No distractions. Just me saying God these are my feelings..HELP!

Why am I discouraged?Why is my heart so sad?I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again-my Savior and my God! Psalm 43:5

These are a series of questions i've asked myself. Why am I discouraged or sad? Is it because im not getting my way?Is it because i've put my security in a job? Is it because i've put my identity in what others think of me?What is true?What is false? What have I put my hope in?How can I take my thoughts captive?

If you can relate to any of this.I would encourage you to do the same.This season is temporary.There is hope.You have a purpose EVEN in this season.Hang in there.

Be encouraged,

Izzy
