So I Got a Job

So I got a job. And even though I still had plenty of time to write and post on social media, I did not. Why? Well, first off my laptop was acting up, but thatβs not much of an excuse because my dad fixed it for me after a few days. Then I thought since I was working full time I could take a break and just be lazy. A week or two probably would have been fine, but FIVE WEEKS? No, that was just plain lazy.Β
One of my last posts was about how Satan loves to Distract, Deceive, and Destroy. Welp, I was allowing him to do just that to me the past few weeks. I got distracted with my new job and was deceived into thinking that watching k-dramas for hours on end was fine – since I worked full time. I didnβt read my Bible much at all either. I was beginning to feel down. To feel stressed that I wasnβt doing anything to get closer to accomplishing my dreams. I also felt unmotivated to do anything I needed to do to take another step forward.Β
I felt like it was impossible to. Impossible for me to reach my goals, pointless for me to even try. That Iβd just get burnt out again and not have made any progress. I asked God what was wrong with me. Why I was feeling like this.Β
Thatβs when I realized. Satan comes to Distract, Deceive, and Destroy! That was the next step that he was working on with me. And I was letting him. So then I said, NO. No, I am going to move forward. I will do what God wants me to do. I will accomplish my dreams and goals – because God gave them to me for a reason. And I canβt just give up and throw it away, just because I donβt feel like I can do it. Just because I feel like itβs impossible to do. I know itβs not. Not with God. Because with God, all things are possible. And I will trust Him to be my strength. He loves me and cares for me and I have given my life to Him. Not to the things of this world. I refuse to give up. God will help me to continue. And knowing that makes me feel so much better and renews my determination.Β
To you, my reader, Iβm sorry that I stopped writing. It may happen again, since I am not perfect, but I pray that it wonβt (unless God wants me to move on to something else in the future). If that does happen, I will do my best to notify you instead of just going dark πΒ
Bye for now, have a wonderful day!
