the beginning of the end

This photo depicts a little of how my heart feels. I KNOW there's a lot of beauty all around me like the sunrise in the background. But what I'm FEELING is craziness. So much to learn, so little time.

Finals begin tomorrow.
5 tests.
5 days.
On the 6th day I'll rest.

Rest.

What a lovely word.

Jesus said, "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." (matt 11.28)

So I suppose, rest comes from Jesus. My soul can rest even before finals are over. hmmm.
