Hey loves,
I woke up today feeling so down, sad, and not motivated. At the start of the year, I did not make a new years resolution as my 2021 was a total blur. I was still trying to get myself into a mental space where I can get up and get back on the grind but it was super tough.
As I settled into 2022, I slowly started to get my groove back. I wrote down my short-term goals as my long-term goals remain constant. I made plans and started to push myself daily to reach these set goals.
I did a review and I felt so tired because it seemed like my efforts were going down the drain and it got me super emotional and exhausted mentally. I just wanted to sleep the day away and just stop!
My countenance was so down that my mom came in to see me, immediately read my mood and figured something was off with my responses. Funny thing is that I had a smile on my face but I was breaking down slowly within.
As soon as she noticed I was not okay she began to encourage me, remind me of how far I have come, what we have been through to get here and how she does not want me to give up now especially since our prayers have been answered and our miracle is about to become a reality.
I love my mom, I love my support system. I really do. I am thankful for having such external motivation especially when the internal one I have fails and comes crumbling but this time felt like it was like pouring water on a ducks back. I was all tapped out and words were not helping this time. I needed to see things work.
I wanted to let go and just let things be but I realized not doing anything makes things even get worse. The trick is to pray, stay focused, remain consistent, and keep going. So I took a bath and tried to give today another shot. It was not easy but it would be worth it someday.
I encourage you to not give up. I do not know what you are going through today but keep going, don’t lose hope, don’t lose faith, gather that last strength that is left, and push forward. You may not see the harvest today but you are sowing seeds that someday will germinate and flourish into a tree with fruits.
Hang in there as we tune into this song by the amazing Hillsong United. As always thank you so much for tuning in! All my love to you now and always.
You call me out upon the waters
The great unknown where feet may fail
And there I find You in the mystery
In oceans deep my faith will stand
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine
Your sovereign hand will be my guide
Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me
You've never failed and You won't start now
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine
And You are mine
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Saviour
Keep my eyes above the waves
My soul will rest in Your embrace
I am Yours and You are mine

Hola amores,
Hoy me desperté sintiéndome tan deprimida, triste y sin motivación. Al principio del año, no hice una resolución de año nuevo ya que mi 2021 fue un total borrón. Todavía estaba tratando de ponerme en un espacio mental donde pueda levantarme y volver a la rutina, pero fue súper difícil.
A medida que me asentaba en 2022, poco a poco empecé a recuperar mi ritmo. Escribí mis objetivos a corto plazo mientras mis objetivos a largo plazo seguían siendo constantes. Hice planes y empecé a esforzarme a diario para alcanzar estos objetivos fijados.
Hice un repaso y me sentí muy cansada porque parecía que mis esfuerzos se estaban yendo por el desagüe y eso me tenía súper emocionada y agotada mentalmente. Sólo quería dormir todo el día y parar.
Mi semblante estaba tan decaído que mi madre entró a verme, enseguida leyó mi estado de ánimo y se imaginó que algo no iba bien con mis respuestas. Lo curioso es que yo tenía una sonrisa en la cara pero me estaba derrumbando lentamente por dentro.
En cuanto se dio cuenta de que no estaba bien, empezó a animarme, a recordarme lo lejos que he llegado, lo que hemos pasado para llegar hasta aquí y cómo no quiere que me rinda ahora, especialmente porque nuestras oraciones han sido respondidas y nuestro milagro está a punto de hacerse realidad.
Quiero a mi madre, quiero a mi sistema de apoyo. De verdad que sí. Estoy agradecida por tener tal motivación externa, especialmente cuando la interna que tengo falla y se desmorona, pero esta vez sentí que era como verter agua en la espalda de un pato. Estaba agotada y las palabras no ayudaban esta vez. Necesitaba ver que las cosas funcionaban.
Quería dejarlo pasar y que las cosas fueran como son, pero me di cuenta de que no hacer nada hace que las cosas empeoren. El truco es rezar, mantenerse concentrado, ser constante y seguir adelante. Así que me di un baño y traté de darle otra oportunidad al día de hoy. No fue fácil, pero algún día valdrá la pena.
Te animo a que no te rindas. No sé por lo que estáis pasando hoy, pero seguid adelante, no perdáis la esperanza, no perdáis la fe, reunid las últimas fuerzas que os quedan y seguid adelante. Puede que no veas la cosecha hoy pero estás sembrando semillas que algún día germinarán y florecerán en un árbol con frutos.
Aguanta mientras sintonizamos esta canción de los increíbles Hillsong United. Como siempre, ¡muchas gracias por sintonizarnos! Todo mi amor para ti ahora y siempre.
Me llamas sobre las aguas
El gran desconocido donde los pies pueden fallar
Y allí te encuentro en el misterio
En los océanos profundos mi fe se mantendrá
Y mantendré mis ojos por encima de las olas
Cuando los océanos se eleven
Mi alma descansará en Tu abrazo
Porque yo soy tuyo y Tú eres mío
Tu mano soberana será mi guía
Donde los pies pueden fallar y el miedo me rodea
Nunca has fallado y no empezarás ahora
Y mantendré mis ojos por encima de las olas
Cuando los océanos se eleven
Mi alma descansará en Tu abrazo
Porque yo soy tuyo y Tú eres mío
Y Tú eres mío
Déjame caminar sobre las aguas
Dondequiera que Tú me llames
Llévame más profundo de lo que mis pies podrían vagar
Y mi fe se hará más fuerte
En la presencia de mi Salvador
Déjame caminar sobre las aguas
Donde quiera que me llames
Llévame más profundo de lo que mis pies podrían vagar
Y mi fe se hará más fuerte
En la presencia de mi Salvador
Déjame caminar sobre las aguas
Donde quiera que me llames
Llévame más profundo de lo que mis pies podrían vagar
Y mi fe se hará más fuerte
En la presencia de mi Salvador
Déjame caminar sobre las aguas
Donde quiera que me llames
Llévame más profundo de lo que mis pies podrían vagar
Y mi fe se hará más fuerte
En la presencia de mi Salvador
Déjame caminar sobre las aguas
Donde quiera que me llames
Llévame más profundo de lo que mis pies podrían vagar
Y mi fe se hará más fuerte
En la presencia de mi Salvador
Déjame caminar sobre las aguas
Donde quiera que me llames
Llévame más profundo de lo que mis pies podrían vagar
Y mi fe se hará más fuerte
En la presencia de mi Salvador
Mantendré mis ojos por encima de las olas
Mi alma descansará en Tu abrazo
Yo soy tuyo y Tú eres mío

I totally understand how you feel babe, I was there two weeks ago, Zidi literally forced me out of it.
It's going to be fine, you will be fine.
Sigh!!
The pressure is insane.
I have to deal with so much adulting stuff offline...
It's just overwhelming at times...
We go survive las las 😟
Thank you for your kind words 😊
Exactly, sometimes it's too hard especially since we are still young like or not but God never gives us what we can't handle, that is what I tell myself.
Indeed.
I would like to believe that he has a greater purpose and goal for allowing certain things to happen to us.
Oh well, we would keep keeping on 😊😊😊
We will keep going indeed.
Brace up dear one.
Better days ahead😊😊
💗💗

Hmmm, for now not really but I get invited to sing though.
What about you?
Peaq!!
Thank you for sharing your feelings and experience, and you transformed them into encouragement. Somehow my day today was also a bit weird, feeling down. I usually don't let the outside circumstances affect my mood, but it just happened. I felt the same, as you say, down. This evening talked to my mom, and felt how positive she is! Both of them, my parents, and they dont have it easy. Then I see this post of yours...
Tomorrow will be a better day :))) Must be! 😇
Oh wow. I am so sorry to hear that.
We are only human and we can only be so strong.
I believe it is okay to feel the emotion but not dwell on it or let it consume us that we seize from being our best selves and staying productive.
Oh dear. A whole lot is going on.
Apparently, my mom was encouraging me this morning and I happen to be encouraging her this evening. It is not really easy.
We just need to have the right people in our corner to be there to encourage us when we are down and we will do the same for them.
How timely...
I am super hopeful. The sunrise reminds me of another opportunity to stay hopeful and remain consistent.
Thank you so much for your ever lovely words ♥️♥️♥️♥️
it's ok, we all have to have those days. Not a bad day, but either that shiny as usual. But you are right, I agree with you completely, that it is ok to feel the emotion but not let it consume us.
Very truthful observation @peaq :)
And indeed, the day after that one was a lot better one, I hope your one too 😇😇
There's always a rainbow after the rain @peaq totally obsessed with this song. 🧡🧡🧡🧡 Love, love.love 🧡🧡🧡 Loce your voice! 😻😻😻😻😻
I can't wait to see the rainbow...😟😟😟
It puts me in all times of mood.
It's a really beautiful song.😍😍😍
Thank you so much dear one♥️♥️♥️
Great voice as always!
Grateful for support systems. They are very crucial to our everyday lives.
Stay strong @peaq!
Thank you so much.
I appreciate your kind words @draysax
Tremendo tema lleno de esperanza y fe en Dios!
De la mano de Dios saldremos victoriosos siempre. Te mando un cálido abrazo 🤗
