We are all just trying to get through.

get through these weeks until the weekends. Get through this exam, this class, this job. I think we focus on trying to survive way too much and do not focus on trying to live enough. stay with me. We bog ourselves down, focusing on just getting through and we miss so so many chances to do awesome things and for Christ to do awesome things through us. I know that days when i wake up with a specific goal in mind i get so so much more done and i find myself surviving after all.

For example. tomorrow i’ll wake up and i’ll decide to spend my day looking for someone who needs a smile, intentionally looking for someone, for a group of someones, and i’ll pray that God will show me them. If you’re praying for God to help you be His light in the world, He’ll help you do it. And before you know you’re day is over and you’ve spent 100% of your time being used by God (which is the best feeling in the world) and 0% of your time worrying, being stressed, and whining. 

I’m mostly reminding myself of all this stuff, but maybe you could try to find 1 thing to focus on tomorrow and see if it doesn’t make your Monday that much easier.
