I have truly learned that worrying is wrong and does not replenish peace. I struggle with worrying about too many things that it makes me feel uneasy and gives me a headache. Two weeks ago, I turned in my final research essay for my writing class. Repeatedly, my teacher told my class that if we plagiarize we will fail the class. Of course I know I didn't plagiarize, but I worried that I unintentionally plagiarized and was fearful that I had a chance of failing. Last night I knew that my results were going to be in today and I told God, "Worrying did not help my grade one bit. If You get me an A, I will have to write about how You are so right about focusing on You and not silly thoughts. No matter what the outcome is I will praise You. Thank You for teaching me this valuable lesson." Today was the day I received my binder filled with my semesters work. I stepped outside the classroom and said, "Ok God this is it." I opened it and saw an A. I kneeled quietly and praised God for blessing my studies and am joyful to say goodbye to worry and trust God that truly He will help me with all I must do at each specific time. Matthew 6:34 is a treasure of truth!
