weakness

Life gets a little busy sometimes. Actually, lately I have felt like I couldn't catch a breath. Literally. I went to the doctor yesterday because I still have so much tightness in my chest. I was given a steroid to try to relieve it. Not sure how much it is helping. He said the symptoms are likely to be related to weather, and the cold air, which are almost asthmatic symptoms. I'm hoping this steroid does a little something. I'm ready to be well. I have found myself thinking, "What if I gave up? Stopped trying? How am I able to keep going everyday???" Then I realized...I have been able to keep going because of God's unfailing love for me. It hasn't been easy. Because although I'm sick and my body is telling me to slow down, the world doesn't slow down. So I have to keep going. Everyday, when I get home from school I normally go straight upstairs to my bed.....to sleep. Most days I sleep 2 hours in the afternoon. The very fact that I am that physically exhausted and weak scares me terribly. I'm that person who is always busy, on the go, never just at home doing nothing. But lately, it isn't the case. One day, I will be well and back to my normal self. But for now, I'm gonna slow down and ask you: will you pray for me today? I want so badly to do whatever I want, without feeling weak....or feeling like I have hardly any strength.

Thank you blog readers!
