Stress.

Everyone has stress. No matter if it's a huge amount or a small amount, we all have stress.

Stress is something that gets to me a lot. Not because I am a perfectionist, but because I am afraid to disappoint people. 

Many of my friends would say, you are just putting unnecessary stress on yourself. I know I am. But what I do not knw, is how to not do it. 

I guess I would say that stress gets to me a lot. Like, a lot. I would vent my anger on those working on the project with me or just people around me. My temper shortens by a lot, even though it was a very 'long' temper to begin with. I become the biggest bitch on earth.

And when I get stressed up about a project, I get very emotional:/ I would suddenly feel like I need someone by my side to keep me going. I would suddenly feel like I need to do more for him. I would suddenly feel like giving up on him.

But when I get these symptoms, I know that I am officially overly stressed. However, amongst all the chaos going on in my head, there will always be a bible verse that floats into my head,

Philippians 4:13

I can do this through him who gives me strength.

I believe that God will not give me more than I can handle and that whatever He gave me to be in charge of, He will provide me with the strength to do it. Because He is my provider, He is my everything, He is my Lord. And I would pray. I would give thanks.

I do not need anyone else, other than Him, to give me strength.

Psalm 56:3

When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.

Lord, I will take my hand and lead me. For I am only human.
