"Since God is always caring for me there isn’t a point when I’m beyond help or over pressured."
 

I knew this week would come, the week when I would have to prepare and give an hour long presentation. And because of the client work I had to do, I couldn’t begin work on the presentation until this week. It’s just how it had to go – I had to stay focused on clients last week.

I held my breath and jumped into this week. To help myself prepare, I didn’t set up too many meetings and also put three big blocks of time on my calendar from Tuesday to Thursday (when the event is). On Monday night I was a bit anxious so I worked very late to get the shell of the presentation ready.

Then Tuesday came and I spent an hour or two preparing and felt much more at peace. All of sudden I felt I had tons of time to prepare and could even do other work between now and the Thursday evening presentation.

Then while praying the next day
I realized that I didn’t have to endure these ups and downs. Since God is always caring for me there isn’t a point when I’m beyond help or over pressured. This was an important reminder that God is always with me guiding my every step and keeping me on track. Whatever my own sense of the situation is – I can look at it from higher ground and find confidence in knowing God is organizing every piece of my life.

Meaning, God had organized my day, my actions and certainly was helping me prepare – and because of all this I could be at peace.

My prayer each morning includes recognizing my connection with God and the power of that connection – this is what makes each day the best it can be.

I share this now in case it helps you avoid the ups and downs and points you to reconnecting with God to see things from a spiritual view. Once I realized God had always been in charge I realized those feelings of anxiety were misplaced and that I could avoid that trap next time I have a big deadline.
