Hebrews 4:16

"So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most."

Breakdown time? NO! When I first got my final reviews from my professors, I wanted to cry. I was already getting stressed, before I even started studying for it! 1. For my religious studies final, I have to write 5 essays. My professor gave us a guide of what we're going to write about, but we aren't allowed to take in notes to help us. Basically, I need to memorize all 5 of them. 2. For my history final, I have to write three essays. He gave us four topics, but he's only choosing one (for the big essay). Basically, I have to memorize 4 essays. And then, of course, the other two "little" ones that he's taking from all our reading questions from this semester. 3. These are borderline grade classes. I NEED to do well.

Obviously, I was super stressed and overwhelmed just with the thought of preparing and studying for these finals. I've been living at the CSUN library for the past week (not really living here, but staying til it closes, which is 2am). And it doesn't help that my finals are one day after another, plus it's going to be a busy weekend. But you know what? I've got God on my side. I've been working on my study guides for my finals and they actually did not turn out THAT bad. All I need to do is put in the effort, do my best, and God will take care of it all. I can trust that He will.

Sigh. Praise God that I've come this far through the semester. Really. I don't know how I got through it. Actually, I do. I got through this semester only through God's strength and favor. I could not have done this on my own. AT ALL. And, lesson learned, I'm NEVER EVER taking 6 classes in one semester. It's way too overwhelming with work everyday and a lot of activities. But thank You Lord!

After next Tuesday, I can breathe again. I love You!
