SONG IN MY HEAD: IS THIS THE END? - NEW EDITION

Dear Abba,
I've been putting off this journey for several days now. When I think about my why, I have to be honest. I'm not sad that another notebook/journey has ended, I know there is a time for everything....
Scripture of the day:)
There is a time for everything,
    and a season for every activity under the heavens:
    a time to be born and a time to die,
    a time to plant and a time to uproot,
    a time to kill and a time to heal,
    a time to tear down and a time to build,
    a time to weep and a time to laugh,
    a time to mourn and a time to dance,
    a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
    a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
    a time to search and a time to give up,
    a time to keep and a time to throw away,
    a time to tear and a time to mend,
    a time to be silent and a time to speak,
    a time to love and a time to hate,
    a time for war and a time for peace.
   "a time to think and a time to write"- DP1

It is the uncertainty of the next journey that pains me. I know that the only way I can take the necessary steps is to execute by faith. This journey is truly calling for TRUST, trusting that your will for my life and the lives of my loved ones is a perfect will. One that was crafted before we entered our mother's womb. Abba I would be lying if I said that I wasn't afraid, but I am committed to doing it afraid. Help me not to be anxious, but to become more prayerful about the details of my life. Help me to be consistent and intentional with my time energy and attention. Help me to monitor my thoughts closely, replacing my negative ones quickly with positive ones. Help me to cope with myself, learning and implementing new self- care activities that will help me to evolve into a better version of myself.
