Reflections on becoming

Some battles are too big for me

in

When people scatter seeds of doubt, and one gets planted in your heart, you begin to entertain and ruminate on thoughts you never considered before.

What if they were right?

What are the signs that I have missed?

Then you overthink.

Can you still remember what it feels like NOT to overthink? Helplessness about the uncertainty of things could make you crazy, if you just allow it to happen, right?

Everyone could be a little crazy sometimes. But when in doubt, I don’t want to go overboard and be on the extreme side of crazy, you know?

So, what do I do?

Rest in the peace of God and remind myself that He is in control. What could a feeble human like me can do over battles that are too big for me, right? Sometimes, it just helps to surrender control. And this act of surrender quells the noise in my head and lets me lie in sleep, letting me go through for another day.
