Day 205

I have been restless. My sleep pattern gets messier (well, it's already messed up, so you can imagine how bad it's becoming) and I could barely stay collected. Overthinking and over-planning are my companions during midnight until dawn. So much going on in my head yet all I could do is blank-staring the computer screen for hours until I fell asleep on my chair.

I find myself in the state of trying; trying to knock on some new doors, trying to slip through a narrow window, trying to read unfamiliar road signs — while hoping to work things out and see the finished product. Despite not knowing what will happen, I keep reminding myself to relax because I have put my trust in Him—not in the result.

Still, why is it so hard to remain at peace?

My devotional reading says:
"God is not done. Your life may look or feel like an unfinished painting—a huge mess with pieces missing. God wants you to know that although you may not be able to see it, He is still at work. He's still doing a creative and brilliant work in your life and in the lives of those you love. Just because you can't see the finished product, doesn't mean that it's not going to be a masterpiece. Be confident that He who began a good work in you will complete it. 
So, rest assured: God is still active and hard at work in your life."
