I realized I was tired.  So tired. I tried everything.  I couldn’t be everything. I couldn’t handle all the balls that I had in the air.  I couldn’t breathe... One morning God said go to church.  Literally 3am God said GO TO CHURCH!  I heard it as clear as if He was standing next to me.  I felt like I was awakened by a loud whisper in my ear.  I laid in bed and tried to ignore the pit in my stomach.

I wanted to be different.  A post from a women's bible study group said to pick one word.  Pick a word to describe what you want to be this time next year. My word was Different.  Different kept coming up..... Everything should be fine because on the outside it was, but on the inside I was a big ol mess.  I didn't want to be mad. I didn't want to snap all the time. I didn't want to work all the time...
