In the midst of end of year chaos, somehow I find peace. As the senior class Vice President at my school, the end of the year is the most stressful and busiest time of the year. Graduation is quickly approaching, senior breakfasts must be planned, senior superlatives must be voted on, and all the while my steam is running low from senioritis (I promise you, it’s very real), but somehow I find peace. With two jobs, college classes, and AP tests you’d think I’d be running my self to a slim, but somehow I find peace.
Until one day I don’t.
Today I took my first AP test of the week and, my squad already knows, I was really anxious about it. I came out of the test thinking “I guess I did alright”, and then life hit me with a curve ball and the next thing I know, I’m on the way to a math exam that was rescheduled for today that was supposed to be next week… totally unprepared and not to mention very hungry. I called a friend and texted my parents asking for prayers over this unexpected chaos, and sure enough God granted it.
If you know me, you know can sometimes be a tightly wound ball of stress when my plate is full and the to-do list is long, but this spring I’ve learned to give it ALL to God. None of my problems are too big for Him to fix and my worries too small for Him not to notice. He sees the little things that make me anxious, and the big things that could affect my future, and He takes all of these burdens from me with open arms.
Matthew 11:28-30 His yoke is easy, His burden is light.
