This morning I slept through both of my alarms, woke up late for class, and - if I'd been making toast, would have burned it. It was that kind of morning. In class the teacher was more difficult than usual to please, I found out about an assignment due in the morning and was told that I may have to show my room on a campus tour. I wasn't super pumped about life in general.
However, God is still good. Thankfully he was gracious to be and reminded me to give it all over to him. Once I released all the stresses and frustrations I began to see his mercies all around me; the weather was beautiful, someone told me I looked cute. As I was rushing out of the cafeteria with my togo box of lunch to eat while studying for an online quiz that was due this afternoon He sent a kind stranger to open the door for me so that I wouldn't drop my food. I got to my room, slightly stressed, and realized that I had it to myself for little while so that I could study for and take my quiz in quietness. It shouldn't surprise me that the Lord knows exactly what I need, when I need it. But I am happily surprised when he opens my eyes to his wonders all around me.
My list of assignments is still lengthy. There are still only 24 hours in a day. I still have class in the morning. But my attitude has changed and I'm able to focus on the blessings instead of the work.
Thank you Lord, Praise to you!
