Sometimes I worry...

I'm taking a break from the 30 day picture challenge until I get Facebook back so I can have pictures:)  So the next few posts will be kind of random. Here goes...

Don't worry about tomorrow because God is already there. These words, so simple and so true, yet I can't seem to grasp the concept.

Lately, I have been worrying about things. They seem simple to outsiders but to me they seem like huge mountains I need to climb... Friends moving away, what I want to do with the rest of my life, friends getting married and talking about having kids. The list goes on. I keep telling myself I need to get through the next few hours of this day and to take things one day at a time. I can't control any of these things so why do I worry?

I was told it was because I'm a girl. Yeah, that doesn't have anything to do with it. Worrying comes from not trusting. Its hard for me to admit that fact but its true, I want things in MY time. I want to know what my life has planned for me. What job I am going to have, who I'm going to fall in love with, who truly matters in my life. If its meant for me to lose touch with friends who move away then that's a challenge I will have to face when the time comes.

My goal for the rest of the semester (and even after that) is to start putting my trust in God. He knows what he has planned for me and it's awesome. I just need to tell myself this every time I start to worry. I'm going to start focusing on the words of  Jeremiah 29:11


I have a lot of changes ahead of me in the next few months but I'm going to take them one step at a time.
