So I throw my life upon all that You are...

Or at least I try...

Let's be honest here. This semester is going to be so busy. But here's my problem: I try so hard to work everything out in my brain, and I get all stressed out about how I'm going to fit everything in. I worry about finding time to practice, study, prepare for Barnabus stuff, have solo time, and time with my friends. I try to take care of it all. I need to let it go. I need to let God take care of it.

I know that my year is going to be chaotic unless I spend the start and end of every day with Jesus. I love him; I need him. But it's so hard to stay in the habit.

I don't want to complain. I don't want to bring down other peoples' days by my busyness. I want to lift others up in what I say to them. So that's another reason why I need God this year. With him, I don't need to have a bad attitude or complain or stress out. Because he's got it all taken care of. As Jon Foreman sings: "Why do I worry? Why do I freak out? God knows what I need." It's so true. I need to remember that. He knows what I need. And he will give me just enough for each day.

Adonai Ro-iy lo echsar

The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
