I spent all yesterday worried about nothing. I worried about all the work that I would need to catch up on from Thanksgiving week. I felt pulled to work on Sunday and to catch up on my work instead of just taking the day for rest. To my credit, I resisted the pull to work, and I tried my best to relax. However, I did worry about it. On Sunday night, I felt those familiar Sunday night blues thinking that I was going to be overwhelmed the next day.
Today, I started working and I just took it one step at a time. Although I didn’t completely catch up with my work, I did get caught up with almost everything and I know that I will be able to get caught up within next day or two. I am still learning to relax. There’s a huge gulf for me between being conscientious and worrying too much. I am probably going to be working on finding that balance for the rest of my life, but experiences like the past two days are great lessons in trusting God and letting go.
My faith saved me. May God’s peace reside in all of our hearts.
