It's going to be okay, I promise

To You, The Worried Student

I am in your shoes. I worry too. I worry that I won't graduate on time. I worry about not meeting my deadlines. I worry about that test I have to take on Tuesday. We all worry, it is natural, it is inevitable as a human being.

Let me shine some light on you as you are probably worrying about SOMETHING as you are reading this. Psalms 55:22 says this, "Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee: He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved."

So I challenge you, give your burden to The Lord. He will gladly take it from you and sustain you. He will make you whole. It is so easy to say "Let go and Let God", but let's ACTUALLY do so. Let's actually give our cares to God and let Him work his divine work.

God already knows what your future will hold. He is going to use you in amazing ways. Study for that test, don't stress it. Meet your deadline, but don't tear yourself apart by doing so. Step back and say "God's got this," because He does.

Don't worry. Don't fear. One thing that God hates is to see us give in to the negativity from the devil. Our stress does not come from The Lord. He never gives us more than we can handle, so take a minute and breathe.

"For I know the plans I have for you", declares The Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
