letting go

i sorta came to a realization last night in the midst of all my stress and frustration with my classes and scheduling and pre-requisistes and all that...

i'm trying to make it work.
me
in all my savvy smarts and ins and outs and desire to beat the system
i'm relying on me
and it's not working...

why haven't i given this up?
why have i been hanging on to it all these months?
i can't really fight God's will and God's plan
so why don't i just ask Him to guide me and point me where i need to go.

yesterday was a really long day. my classes this semester are going to be intense. but i keep forgetting that classes are ALL i have to do right now. i have no other outside committments. it's a crazy weird feeling...oh well. it will be a very busy semester, but a very good semester. i'm excited for what i'm going to be learning.

Hi Emma!

God will carry you through all of this, that is for sure. I am glad that you are getting adjusted. I cannot wait to hear what He has for you there! Hang in there...and try to enjoy every moment of this experience...it will fly by!

Smiles, Marie

Letting go is hard, but realizing you're holding on is at least half the battle. So glad for what you're already learning and the things God has planned for this chapter of your life!
