6. Matthew 6:25-24

Ok, so this is the sixth blog entry I have written and I find myself kind of in a rut. I am not sure what to write about at this point. When I first started thinking about what to write I came up with nothing. My mind was blank. All I could think about was the new Taylor Swift song playing in the backround. But finally something entered my head. I'll just talk about my week. As boring as it may be. It's been so stressful. With tests, grades, and the pledging process I wasn't sure I would make it to the weekend!

Alas! Here I am. I am sitting at my house (only thirty minutes from school- I know I ventured far from home) and reflecting on my crazy week. It seemed like everything and everyone was either bugging me to no end or making me feel really antsy and nervous. It was a strange feeling and one that I don't encounter much. When I do though, I definitely don't enjoy it. At this stage in my life though, I had exactly one option: I had to rely on my faith and on my God to make me feel better.

I wasn't able to go into my mother's room and tell her EVERYTHING that had happened. And I didn't want to unload all of my problems on one of my friends. So this time, it really boiled down to me and the Holy One. And I realized something important: He will take care of me. I may not ace every test, I WON'T get eight hours of sleep every night, and I probably will not get along with everyone all the time. But He is my constant and my everlasting rock. Matthew 6 is my saving grace chapter. It helped me through this week and it helped me through every other week before this one. Main point: Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow has enough troubles of it's own.
