Sabbath Rest.

Don't ask why I'm up at 3 typing this.
So, yesterday, the talk at H2O was on sabbath rest. I think the speaker is right. We try too hard to prove ourself to other people. I always try to prove myself to my parents, friends, relatives, brothers and sisters. It's no wonder why life gets so tiring. Leave it to God. These 4 words, I say them so regularly, and yet, have I really learnt to do it? Don't let your work define you, Christ defines you. There's no need to prove yourself. REST in Christ's salvation. Have peace knowing you are not a slave to sin, but a servant of Christ. A child of God.
God, even though my emotions are all over the place, even though I am messed up, teach me to leave it to you. You ARE my almighty Father, and I know you know what is best. So, keep my faith in you and keep you as the centre of my life rather than those earthly things I've filled my heart with. Allow me to rest in you.

A "short" update

By Annie
Huh, it's been quite a while since I've posted here. Trials are creeping closer and closer, and you can't say I'm not stressed. But at the same time I haven't been the most productive person...in fact, I must say I'm very lazy. Less than 2 weeks til trials and I'm sitting here writing a blog. Here's how I've been going. All the drama's died down since last time, thankfully. I'm learning to let it go and not let it bother me as much. At the moment it seems that my parents are keeping a close watch on my sister, and God willing, it won't happen again. In terms of Barney, I can't say I don't have feelings towards him anymore, but it has been better. I guess I'm able to be comfortable around him again. My pain has returned, but what can I do. My menstrual cycle is currently terrible- I think I've bled for almost a month now. The pain is as usual, a pain- especially to manage because my meds haven't been of use lately....

Apparently not stressed enough.

Why don't my parents do the HSC if they think it's so easy? So, basically, I got my report last night and when my dad saw it, he just kept repeating the fact that my marks were crap and that I'm doing horribly. "You should be the top of the school" My mum wasn't any better, saying that I didn't do well and I need to work harder. Why do they only look at extension maths? I KNOW I FAILED IT. As if I don't feel crappy already. Don't cry. You can't cry.  You're not allowed to cry.
