Though life beats me down, I shall be renewed.
April 5, 2009I probably should be working on my Com Sci project, but I havn’t been keeping up to date with my blogging so I thought I would write a bit about how life has been going.
Classes right now seem overwhelmingly difficult, it seems as though I am working 4x as hard and getting worse grades than last semester. I had some recent good fortune with a math and philosophy exam, That aside my bio insect and com sci classes are ridiculously hard. I was feeling uber stressed anxious and worried about my future which has been why I have been working (almost non stop) the last week. I am stressed to keep I came across these verses last night which were encouraging.
Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your soul. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
Matthew 11:28-30
So do not worry about tomorrow;
for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Matthew 6:34

where does my help come from?

do not depend on your own understanding.
Seek his will in all you do,
and he will show you which path to take.

An anxious heart weighs a man down….
Proverbs 12:25
Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is life not more important than food and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life.
Matthew 6:25-27
Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.

he will never let the righteous fall.

an ever-present help in trouble.

I will trust and not be afraid.
The LORD, the LORD, is my strength and my song;
he has become my salvation.
