sometimes all we need is prayer

Today was the first day of classes and all went really well. I love my professors, I'm getting closer to my roommates everyday and friendships are becoming stronger. However tonight, despite a wonderful day, I seemed to be in a funk. I just wasn't feeling myself.

So I wrote. I wrote my feelings of why I was upset at the night and how it worked out. When I told Nick I wasn't feeling like myself though and I really just needed prayer, he gave me just that. Called me and prayed with me over the phone. Prayed for the friendship I had given him, that my physical and mental pain would be washed away and that God would drive my actions. Until he said this, I didn't realize that I had left God out of my night.

I started to cry. I have put God in such control of my life and the moment I pushed him and his plan aside for one night, I felt in even less control. When God is steering my life, all is well. I'm happy and in a good place. Tonight made me realize how much I need God in my life. His plan for me is what makes me happy, makes me feel secure in myself and my love with Him.

So thank you God for this realization and for having friends like Nick who don't let me forget that you know what you're doing and I'll always be safe in your arms.
