Top 10 Things You Can Do When Going Through Rough Times.

Hello fam, when things didn't go as planned and when perspectives seemed dark in life, these were the 10 things that were super helpful to me:

1- Acknowledging what I was going through – not pretending everything was just “okay”
2- Journaling my thoughts (the paradox, the ambiguities, the confusion, the good, the bad, the ugly and everything in between)
3- Encouraging myself in the Lord – open your bible, and remind yourself of who God is, regardless of what you’re going through.
4- Writing my prayers down – write down the deepest feelings and truest thoughts with God, ask Him to help you in this season.
5- Writing my own confessions – Here are some great resources to get you started: https://drive.google.com/open?id=12iJUJhZ8ZHqGgiN4wQM9YsEDQ8YXkMVC
6- Not isolating myself– be vulnerable and share what you’re going through with a friend, and PRAY together (makes a huge difference)
7- EXPRESSING THE PAIN – write, sing, paint, design…pressure creates gold.
8- Counting my blessings – consciously *count* all that you have, versus focusing on everything you lack.
9- Getting counselling – if you know you’ve stayed too long and you want to move forward with your life, dare to try counselling: https://faithfulcounseling.com/
10- Listening to music – create a playlist of songs that speak to you and lyrics that understand you + keep them on replay.
