I can't remember when I've felt so at peace. I feel more joyful now than I have in a long time. My head hurts right now, but other than that I'm fine.
Tonight I got out of class early and went to Wesley, which I'm glad I did. I love Wesley. I talked to Holly for a long time afterwards which was great. I enjoyed that a great deal.
I believe life makes a difference when you're willing to sucumb to God. Sure, life isn't a breeze all the time. I know this period of euphoria won't last forever. I know there will be sometime that something is going to happen and it's going to be a difficult time for me. But that's life. You can either sit around and wait for the ax to fall or you can enjoy your life knowning the joy of the Lord is your strength and while it won't always keep you happy, it will keep you hopeful.
People have trouble relinquishing control where God is concerned. I know there are still things I want so much to control, but I can't. I'm still learning to let them go into hands that know so much better than I do. But to know there's a God who won't let me down...that's where I find my hope and happiness. And those who say it are right. Put God first, and everything will fall into place.
I thought it was time I reflected on something happier today.
I hope everyone is having a good evening.
