Inch by inch

Good morning Monday. First Monday of my PhD career. I can feel the stress trying to seep in, and already the question trying to form in my mind "Why am I doing this, again?" So, it only took four days for that question to pop up. That's okay, I'm sure it will many [many] more times before this is all said and done. I know I'm here for a reason. I know I'm here because the God of heaven moved in my heart to be here. And that somehow this is part of my "destiny" - whether in getting me to the right career, or just making sure I get a big dose of [much-needed] character building. So instead of giving in to the stress and questions, I am choosing to remember. To remember that this day is His. And I am called here "for such a time as this."

"Inch by inch, a cinch. Yard by yard is hard." Today I am going to take it inch by inch. "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." -Matthew 6:34
