i will be still and know YOu are God

so it's this time of the semester already.. it's the time where i lack faith and i struggle so much because i want something so bad, but i don't know if God will let it happen.

maybe i don't pray enough?

-God- i worked so hard all semester.. You alone know my heart's desires,, not aimed for selfish reasons.. but so that i can glorify you to my full potential.


you guys all know me pretty well by now... i worry a lot. and i struggle with it because i know that i can always do betterr in everything i do. if i accomplish something without giving it my all or getting a close-to-perfect score, then i failed. at least in my mind,, thats the way it works. and yes, this is one of my many flaws i have yett to fix.

it just hit me that all my grades right now are borderlinee of A/B and yes, i am in panic mode.


this brings me to this passage::::


jesus calms the storm -LUKE 8:22-25

where the disciples lack faith for a split second while they thought they were in danger.. jesus asks themm "where is your faith?"

i feel like one of the disciples right now,, where is my faith??

it's so easy to read this passage and feel at ease.. but then the moment i get up from my chair, i'm back to panic mode.

i absolutely love this last part though - "Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey Him." (verse 25)... even the winds and the waters obey His commands. so why worry??...

i just have to keep reminding myself who's in charge.
