Why is hard to make important decisions?

It's obvious that we are all faced with decisions which may one day effect our future or lifestyle! I have been dealing with a great deal of stress for the past two months. My mom was diagnosed with cancer and my job assigned me to another position. Although it is my desire to take two classes, the load is difficult and somewhat overwhelming. This has lead to a great deal of stress, restless nights and mood swings. I have prayed over this situation and have come to realize that I may be taking on two many things at one time. Dropping one of my classes seem to be the ideal thing to do, but on the other hand, I fear that I may regret it in the future. Is it normal to feel this way?

  1. Nekeesha,
    You are taking words right out of my mouth. I thought I was the only one having crazy mood swings. I was thinking of talking to a doctor about depression, but I guess stress does take a lot more out of us than we realize. I am so sorry to hear about your mother. You will be in my prayers. This class seems to have come at a good time for you as well. Best of luck to you.

  2. Keesha,
    You can only follow one path at a time. You know what is best for you and what you can handle. I know you kept this class for a reason, we'll find out what that reason is! (((HUGS)))

  3. Keesha,
    You know in your gut what the right decision is for you. Listen to it, if you do you will realize why, eventually. I'm sorry you are faced with so much at one time. Sometimes we put so much on our plate to distract us from what we really need to face. Reflect on whether that is what you are doing now. Good luck.

  4. Keesha, first understand God will never put more on you than he thinks we can handle. He may be refining you for something important in the future. As for class load, follow your heart. If you think it is too much with everything else going on, then do it. Don't let someone else talk you into sticking it out. By the way, I have been having mood swings for almost a year now-the doctor calls it menopause, I call it 'wanting to chew nails and spit tacks for no reason'.
