College. That's what I'm talking about here.
I just got back from my first day of classes, and have barricaded myself in the dorm - trying to ward of the terrifying future of giving an oral report in Spanish. There are 600 faces I don't recognize, 15 miles of nothing between me and the nearest Sonic, and all I have to battle it is a box of fruit cups and some hot tea.
Well, that and Jesus.
I know that my God is bigger than the fear inside of me (John 16:33). I know that my God gives courage to those who are trembling (Isaiah 41:10). I know He leads me every day in the direction he wants me to go (Exodus 15:13).
And if I just keep reminding myself of these truths, I can breathe again.
He has overcome what is in front of me, He is here to strengthen me and give me peace, and He will continue to lead me even when I'm scared silly of my surroundings.
He's doing the same for you.
