The first week of school is pure chaos. No established routines. No "normal". I hate it. Two days down. Three to go.
I should currently be sound asleep... I have to be awake in ~7.5 hours. But... my mind has been going a million miles a minute for the past 48 hours. Classes. Schedules. Homework (already?!). Learning a new job. Friends. Cru. Ahhhh.
But then... when I suck it up and pull myself out of my own little Grand Valley bubble, I'm instantly reminded that no matter how insane my life gets, I'm living easy. College should be the least of my worries. My grandma is in the hospital. My cousin's vehicle got hit by a roadside bomb in Afghanistan (he's doing ok... but two guys in his unit didn't make it).
These are REAL problems.
Reading 3 sections for physics? Who cares.
God, I know that we all have our issues to deal with, but help me to constantly be reminded that I don't need to stress over the little stuff. Be with grandma, be with Timothy. Comfort them, Lord. Give me the strength and energy to get through these next 3 days. I love you, Lord.
"Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken."
Psalm 62:5-6
