Bible said it best, Relient K said it second best.

You know what's weird, is I was sitting here thinking about what was on my mind. There were different thoughts that came across, maybe I was gonna talk about something that I read today, or maybe I was just gonna go on about my day...


However I got this feeling that someone needed encouragement because they're going through a season in their life where everything is just dragging on, they feel tied down and overwhelmed. And the fact of the matter is, you just aren't moving forward. You are struggling with Forward Motion (Relient K).




First off I think you should know that no matter how cliche it may sound, God has everything in control...
You are going to have one of two choices: to sit back and pout, or to get up and do something about it. Straight up it is that simple, but we let our minds tell us that it us hard. As for me, I tend to struggle with being lazy, feeling unproductive, and it's a matter of forcing myself to get up and fix the issues at hand.  


If you feel overwhelmed, sit there and pray. Pray, Pray, Pray.


"For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me."
Jeremiah 29:11-13


So my advice is to just keep Pressing On (Relient K) and stay cheery, have hope, and trust in Him with knowing that God has you right there where you need to be.  And if you need help with this, I would recommend listening to those Relient K songs, and also here's my last verse for you. 


"But one thing I do: Forgetting what's behind, and focusing on what's ahead. Pressing towards the goal to win the prize for which God has called me."

Philippians 3:13-14
