The pressure is necessary. God has a plan for you. This plan is for you to have hope and to bring glory to Him. It's not about you, it's about Jesus Christ and how he died for all your sins no matter what your life journey is.
The pressures sometimes come from the choices we make, but remember God gave you free will and allows you the choice to serve Him. When we choose our own direction, we fall into a life of confusion, chaos, pain, and fear.
Once you relax, release, and embrace your life with God, He will turn that pressure into purpose. When you embrace the diamond within, it will start to shine. Now just like a diamond, accept your shine. Once you accept it, all you have to do is walk in God's grace, and He will lead the way because He created you to be a diamond.
