I got to see my Mema and Papa too! It made my day getting to see them for a short while and just talk to them. I miss seeing them. I love when I get to see them and hang out with them. I feel closer to them since I've been at school; I feel like I respect them so much more now. I never realized how much they truly care about us and our whole family. Now, I notice the little things. They are the most loving grandparents anyone could ask for. And they are so fun! I have so much fun hanging out with them!
Changing subjects, I realized this weekend while driving back to Auburn that I cannot do it on my own. It is a constant battle for me to control my life and not to let God take the lead. I have many things in my life that are unknown, as does everyone. I ask the normal questions: What am I going to do with my life? Is my major now really what I want to do? Who will I marry? Will I ever marry? Where will I end up? I am constantly thinking about these questions. And I worry myself to death thinking about them. I need God to take these worries out of my hands. And most days, it's a death grip. I read something this weekend:
"It's much harder for God to take something out of gripped hands and will hurt a lot more than it will if it is in open hands, willing to let God take it."
I think this is so true. It will hurt us so much more if we try and hold onto things that are not in God's plan. So, this is my goal this week: To let God take control of the little things and the big things, because in the end, they are all big things. I need to remember that it's not my life and my plans. It's His. I am His.
