My junior year of college has brought a lot of fears into my life. It has challenged my trust in the Lord. A few nights ago, after I had gotten home from studying in the library, I was feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. I proceeded to ignore the feelings, and make dinner. After I ate, they were still there, nagging on my heart.
I decided to sit in my living room and turn on some worship music.
Worship music is basically the cure-all. Whenever I feel lonely or worried I throw it on. Lately, I have been listening to Lauren Daigle's new album, and it just continues to pour truths into me, every time I hear it. As I sat on the floor in my apartment, I was soaking in the truths that were being sung in these songs. I opened my bible and started to read, I also started to pray, and pour my fears out to God.
It was at that moment that I heard God.
I heard God tell me to surrender my fears, and to trust in Him. I started to cry, and I texted a friend about everything that had just happened. The excitement that she showed, made me feel so loved. She was so happy that I was able to trust God, and surrender everything. That night I felt freed. I felt loved by God. I felt like God truly has me in the palm of His hands. I finally feel at peace with my life, and my future. I know that God has a plan for me and that me worrying about it, is not going to change a thing. It has taken me many years to reach this point, but I am so thankful that the day has finally come and I can confidently say that I trust God.
