Let it be

I want to set the mood for this post before I begin.

Grab some headphones, plug them into your computer. Find the song "Let it Be" by The Beatles (if you have heard of them, idk? they're not that popular..) and give it a listen. Or just find some relaxing music, christian music could work too, if you prefer.

Now, find a quiet place to sit, and grab a piece of paper and a pen.

Write down every thing you are stressed/worried/upset about. Every single thing you can think of!
For example, mine would look like this:

"It's finals week, and I want to do my best
Some of my friends seem like they don't really care about me
I HATE that I have acne (imperfections)
I'm getting really sick and tired of struggling with depression."

The list goes on.

Now, say out loud (or in your head if you're in a public place) all of the things on your list to God.
For example, I would say:

"God, I am really stressed out about these finals, I feel like I have to do my best on these or I won't make you, or myself proud. I also feel like my friends aren't there for me, like they don't care what I say or do. And I don't appreciate this body you have given me, or the imperfections on my face. And God, I have depression! I don't like it!"

Just admit everything you're struggling with to God.

Now, you know what you're going to do next?

Just let it be.
That's right. Let it all be.

Just relax!! Take some time for yourself to sit in the presence your God. He holds so much truth and love for you. Tell Him how you feel, tell Him about your day, rest in His presence! Let Him take care of your problems, Let Him take the load off of your shoulders. Let it be!


1 Peter 5:7 "Casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you."
Psalm 62:5 "Yes, my soul, find rest in God: my hope comes from Him."
Matthew 11:28 "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."


(Also, here are some words of encouragement from my dear friends, The Beatles).
And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine on until tomorrow, let it be

God Bless.
