Seeking God

Lately it seems as though things have been settling down. College classes have come to a close and now it feels nice to relax and get out of the same everyday schedule. Although recently I feel like I haven't been spending as much time with God as I should. I feel like since my life is stable and secure, I haven't been going to Him for the guidance that I used to when things were crazy.

It's weird how when your life is crazy and you feel stressed you go to God more than when you have everything together and plenty of time. Often I admire those times in my life where I feel close to Him and when I need Him for the problems I'm facing, even though the problems are often daunting.

Right now I feel like there are a lot of things that are foggy for my future. I don't know what lies ahead but I've been learning to trust God with all that He will bring in the months to come. Even though it's a huge step in a new season of my life since I'm out of the college life and into the real world, I feel peaceful knowing that God will lead me in the right direction if I keep trusting Him.

So many times I get anxious and upset about the things I've done and the things I will do. I look at the mistakes I've made and look to the future with worry about things that could go wrong. I look at the expectations I have for myself and the expectations others have for me and I get worried I won't meet up to all of them. Knowing that I don't have to do it all on my own really helps. God will be with me every step of the way. I can trust in Him when I feel like I don't know what to do or what is the right choice.

Maybe you've been in a place in your life where you feel lost and uncertain. Your future looks dark and foggy and you don't know what to do. You feel like you've grown farther from God and it makes you upset. Well, it's never too late to start again. God's always waiting there for you to draw close to Him. I've found that when I am close to God that I feel more confident and don't worry as much what others think of me. It gives me hope knowing that He is with me wherever I go or whatever I do.

Keep trusting in God to help you through and draw you closer to Him. If you feel like you've grown farther apart in your relationship with Him ask for Him to bring you back together again. Take a few minutes longer each day to spend with Him. Go to Him with your choices and and worries. And just go to Him with the things you think about. God cares about every detail of your life. He loves you most out of everyone!
