    I’m a graduate student and been fighting with stress and severe anxiety for about 6 years. Constantly overwhelmed about the amount of work, deadlines and expectations. I’m trying to learn to put all things in His divine hands but it’s hard to let go of my bad habits. Oh Jesus I surrender myself to you, take care of everything.

    Needed to hear this today. Been working 75 hrs/wk for the last couple months, I was just received the sacrament of Confirmation today into the Church, and Im 1 month pregnant with our first child. Stressed beyond belief, but I know its just a season and to give my stress to God and praise him through it all.

    Thank you, Mother Natalia! I just lost my baby boy in March and am pregnant with another now. Last night, I had such intense anxiety when I saw a little bit of blood. I was immediately convinced I was losing another baby. My husband helped me surrender to God, and I haven't seen any more blood since. But whatever comes, may it be for God's glory. 🙏

    Mother Natalia - this resonates with me. As I’ve gotten older, 52, I get frustrated with just “wanting to be done”, to not have anything more to do for the day or week. Drowning in a puddle is the perfect analogy cuz none of it is that big of a deal. I even have this with prayer… after a long day I can be frustrated with having to say my night prayers. Lord, give me the ability to seek You as these feelings in daily life start to take hold. Free me from the shame of being over stressed by coming to You. Jesus, I trust in You.

    A lot of things are going wrong and I'm trying to recover but every time I'm about to get back up, I am knocked back down. Thank you Mother Natalia for these words because they helped me. Expectations can make one have a distorted view of reality and drowning in a puddle does make someone blind to Jesus.

    I’m going through the same thing.
    The adversary wants us to always say “it’s just one more thing” or “I’m a victim” - instead, let go of the idea that bad things stack up against you and become overwhelming, instead, trust in the LORD and ask “where is Jesus right now” -- and ignore the thoughts 💭 which try to discourage you and make you anxious

    The first time I went to a Byzantine Catholic mass the part you talked about ”let us set aside our earthly cares”… etc was really moving, actually the whole of that section of the liturgy. So I had to take a photo of that page in the liturgy book I was following along with (it was spoken in ukrainian and I had to read it in english…). Now and again I look at the photo and find it very encouraging.
    Thanks for your reflection.

I definitely feel that shame for struggling even though I have no big problems. Thank you for talking about this with such compassion and truth.

    It’s so sad when I see my GP and talk about my faith and how 90% just roll their eyes at me. Like only your Dr can help you nothing else. The Devil has entrenched its self in all aspects of our life. I believe that my self trying to connect to the church has been constantly hampered by the Devil 100%. Please pray for me and I for all of you. 🙏.

      I began investing in stocks and Def earlier this year, and it is the best choice I've ever made. My portfolio is rounding up to almost a million and I have realized that when a stock makes it to the news, chances are you're quite late to the party, the idea is to get in early on blue chips before it becomes public. There are lots of life changing opportunities in the market, and maximize it.
