Know your limitsYou are allowed to eat or sleep rather than squeezing in that last bit of work. Allow yourself to set and respect personal boundariesFocus on your priorities when you say yes or no. Encouragement aboundsMusic, quotes, and more! Don't let yourself slip into a wallow. Surround yourself with quotes that spark something inside of you. Curate a playlist when that makes you feel on top of the world. And don't be afraid to face-lift your encouragement often! Reach outParents, friends, roommates... Sure, it might not be their job to "fix it", but ask them for their support! Cut yourself some slackEvery day does not have to be perfect, but motivate yourself towards the potential of the moments. Social distancing does not mean self-isolationHello, it is 2020. We have SO MUCH technology and media that we can use to stay connected. Almost every platform that you already use plus a bunch of others offer video chatting features. You can still safely go to your favorite places AND this is a great opportunity to scout for new places. Note from me...Hey readers. I wrote these before quarantine and stay-at-home regulations, but the draft fell into the "I'll do that later" category. The fact that there is a pandemic happening should not surprise anyone who calls yourself Christian. The world is broken! No, this disease is not by or from God, but you know what? God is still in control. He did not send it, but He allowed it (Job 1:12; Job 34:10). It is not from God, but He will work it to the good of those who love Him (Romans 8:28). Even with this confidences, I still can't tell you WHY. But an idea?... Has your relationship with God become a "do that later"? Not ~religion of~ God, but a ~relationship with~ God. God is not oblivious to your grief, panic, anxiety, stress, overwhelm. Talk to Him. Sit with Him. Lean in, and know that we will all get through this. <3
