Feeling Overwhelmed

Hello Professor and classmates. I decided to write about what I am feeling today instead of posting a poem. I am feeling very overwhelmed. New job, school, the children (ages 16, 13 and 11), church and bills are driving me crazy lately. I know that God will not put on you more than you can bear but why do I feel so overwhelmed. I thnk God for my new job, for now, I am able to make ends meet. Although, I am working crazy hours throughout the day which causes me to be away from my children quite a bit. I haven't cooked a real home cooked meal in about a week now, because of my job. I even slipped on thoroughly completing my assignments from school. Thank God it is close to the end of the term because I have not been able to log on for the past week like I should and when I did, I rushed through what I was suppose to do. That is not like me. I feel so burdened down. I guess things could be worse, so why am I complaining. I also know that God does things for a reason so what is it that He is preparing me for? I don't like my new job very much, which is cleaning commercial buildings, churches, theaters, etc. although it does pay the bills. I do thank God for it so I am trying not to complain. My children are at each others throats consistantly lately. My 16yr old is a girl, ole brother! Girls can be a mess! My 13 and 11 year old are boys and it seems as though they conspire against my daughter all the time. HELP ME LORD! Well, I just wanted to vent a bit. Thanks for listening, I mean reading and please, pray for my strength!
