An overwhelming moment

My grades are less than satisfactory, homework is piling up.
My boss is a drama king.
My family feels a tad naggy with "where are you?" and "when are you going to...?".
Agh... I pray for balance and for peace, with hope that one day it will be peaceful and still, even for just a moment.
I feel pulled in several different directions and there are moments where I am so worn out, not knowing what task to do first, that I just sit and space away or go where my friends are and forget it all.
Its a tug-of-war in my mind between the things I want to do and the things I need to do, with the most important always seeming to lose.
I long to feel His touch and hug and kiss... To easy my mind and sooth my soul. To bring peace to the longings of my heart and patience to my mind in the waiting of things to come. I long for the focus to complete the tasks at hand which He has set me on. In this peace, I pray for my eyes to widen, my heart to open, and my soul to become still long enough to simply sit in peace and breath in His grace and beauty, simplicity and complexity, to soak in everything my mind could possibly fathom of His awesomeness... Ahh, yeah...
Back to work I go...

This is so simple and honest. One of the best reflections I have read from you.
