Praise be to God! I can't believe how amazing God can be. It makes me tear up to just think about how amazing he has been to me. I know i've prayed some things in the past and it felt like it was taking God forever to answer them. This morning I had my quiet time and I was so stressed and worried about several things. I mean there was about 7 or 8 things that I was worried about. When I went to pray I prayed for him to take those things I was worried about like he instructed in Matt 11:28-30. Well I prayed about it and how I don't want to worry about them and I want to stop my worrying. Well I read after my time of prayer, Matt 6:25-34 and Luke 12:22-34 (the passages where Jesus speaks on how we should not worry about tomorrow, food, clothes, and for our body). Well it made me realize I need to just let God take care of me and stop worrying about everything. Well through out today I felt like a burden has been lifted. Yeah the problems are still there but God has his own large plan and it's not my place to know every little thing about it. Plus it's better to rely on his plan instead of my own. Later on in the day he answered one of my prayers and it made me so glad. It made me think on how much I miss this feeling and how I should always put my trust in him and how seeking his kingdom should be my number 1 priority. Praise him. Well I have SCUBA in an hour or so, so I need to get some grub.
