Questions, Questions

It's that time again. The stress of a new semester is finally starting to hit me, and I feel the urge to write a blog. It is my Senior year (woo hoo)!! One more semester at Biola and I will be an official degree holder. This time of my life is both exciting and nerve-wracking at the same time. Where will I work? Have I had enough education to be ready to start working? Where will I go to grad school? Will I even get into grad school? When am I supposed to get married? Will I still have time to do the things that I love? I feel like there are so many unknowns in my life right now and that absolutely and totally scares me. I was talking to my boyfriend last week about some of the things that are running through my head right now and out of his pocket he pulled a notecard with the words "Be anxious for nothing. God is in control." What good advice! It is so hard for me to let go of the stressing questions and occurrences in my life, to take a step back, and to let God lead. I am so glad that there is a God who is in control of my life. He knows where I will be in a week, in five years, and in twenty years. This is my prayer for this semester. To never be anxious, and to remember that God knows what I need.

"Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God" Philippians 4:6 (NASB)
